| | Young Dro featuring T.I.'s "Shoulder Lean" | ] | A while ago I mentioned that I intended to post some images from my trip to Louisville KY and my subtrip from there into Southern Indiana. Finally that promise is made manifest:
Image #1: Southern Indiana's knock-off version of Wal-Mart:

Image #2: Southern Indiana's knock-off version of Chuck E. Cheese:
 How hard up do you have to be to have a knock-off version of Wal-Mart and Chuck E. Cheese's???
Now, you've surely heard about Alaska's "Bridge To Nowhere" as a prototypical example of pork barrel politics. Well, here's Indiana's version of the Bridge to Nowhere...
 The bridge literally went nowhere!
Nonetheless, I had a good time in Southern Indiana. It's a fun place full of surprises. When we climbed over the earthen levy to view what lay beyond, this is what we saw:
 Yeah, if you lived here (wedged between the levy and the Colgate plant), you'd be home right now! |

I know that bridge | (Link)

That bridge has gone NO WHERE for a very long time. I grew up in Jeffersonville Indiana, and used to live about three blocks from that brigde...spent many a summer afternoon fishing by it, and picking Golden Rod to take home to my mother. It used to be a railroad bridge...unless they have built new ones, there is the Lincoln and the Kennedy Bridges for car traffic. Appreciated the picture.
