For our 6th Wedding Anniversary, we went to French Lick, Indiana. It was only a couple hours southwest of Indy. The architecture of the hotels were basically what sold us for going there.
There was this huge wrap-around porch with rocking chairs where we ate some ice cream one night after dinner.
The ceilings were hand painted replicas of Michaelangelo's paintings.
the lobby
the indoor pool
Then we went to tour the West Bayden Hotel, just down the street from the French Lick Resort. It was built in 1902, and the resort in 1901.
I loved these cushion chairs, so relaxing, I could've rested there all day...
Scott liked these fancy cars: Bently, Mercedes, etc.
The grounds on the West Bayden were beautiful
When we were leaving the hotel, it was some armed forces celebration and there were hummers, troops, and flags everywhere. Scott's highlight was sitting in the gunner seat about to shoot that big gun. Probably as close as he'll get to the real thing, only in your dreams, babe!
Then we took a train ride through town...
Scott was really excited to see the hoop at the house where Larry Bird grew up... just a little disappointed at what was left of the backboard on the barn.
And here's the view of the house during the train ride
Beautiful typical Indiana scenery... green at all times
"I'm Sailing" or "Titanic" pose
It was a great trip, very nice and relaxing!! A million thanks and IOU's to my friend Brittany for watching our kids.
