It's An Indy Adventure!

AKA  THE GEOGRAM WEEKLY

It had been planned since last January.  It was suppose to happen late May.  Then the virus struck.  It was rescheduled for late October.  
Would it happen?

Wonder where Gram G is going this time...she never takes me along...









Goodbye to my faithful driver...
So long for awhile, Pacific Northwest!

Hello, back home in 
Indiana!  So nice to be here!
Gonna hang out with my 6 siblings, nieces and nephews.
Have some fun adventures...


And some creepy ones....

"Spooky Hallow"...
Campground featuring Halloween scenes.

Nephew Nick, our loyal chauffer...






A stop in Minneapolis for a local favorite...
cream of chicken, mushroom, wild rice soup!  Yum!



Back home to the Pacific Northwest, 
Mt. Hood...and Vancouver, Washington!

It was a satisfying, comforting, memorable visit to the 
Midwest, land of my childhood



This has been a good 3 GeoGram weeks in the life of Grandma G.
