And we cross Indiana to do so. I was thinking of route 95 thats a route in NY. Like I said I really dont drive many of the out of state trips. If I did , they would still be looking for us! :)

Geri, if you were driving from New York to Chicago, I'm almost positive you were driving on 80/90. Sometimes they call it the "Indiana Toll Road".
The funny thing is people are always trying to figure out a way to drive around 80/90 and avoid paying the tolls. But in the process, they end up adding a lot of extra miles to their trip. I don't think it would be worth it. Why spend more time in the car and use more gas than is neccessary? Tolls aren't that big of a deal. I would much rather pay the tolls, conserve the gas and get to my destination as quickly as possible.
Those "toll ditchers" are probably the same people who climb under the toilet stalls rather than pay the 25 cents and keep their clothes clean from sliding around on that nasty NASTY bathroom floor. :P

David, I saw it on Andy Towle's gay interest blog Towleroad
http://towleroad.typepad.com/towleroad/
He does cover hate crimes and political news pretty consistently. You can click certain categories like Crime, New York, and so on under a story and get related stories.
Now don't go spending too much time over there -- you're needed here! Andy reports (especially) on New York - you report (especially) on Indianapolis!!

Thanks Andrew for finding some information about this and posting the link to it here! :)

David, I just took the Indiana Toll Road, all the way from post #1 through post #273 of your Messages from the Heartland. You're right, it is a beautiful place. Except for that dog, of course. I literally thought it was mummified, at first look.
I remember "God Didn't Make Little Green Apples" very well from my childhood. And today I went to the mall (which I do about twice a year), and the Nutcracker Suite was playing. Hunh? Merry Octmas.
I'd like to hear more about the artist's colony, please, if anyone has more.
