Bloomington, Indiana is a unique and extremely diverse community--often called the Berkley of the Midwest. All the nuts on the east and west coasts have rolled to the middle and landed right here in Southern Indiana. But there's another side of Bloomington. While the "Gown side" as it"s called is populated with ivory-towered scholars, the "Town side" are good, hardworking, salt-of-the-earth Hoosiers (whatever that is). They eat bisquits and sausage gravy with a side of hash browns and ketchup and teach their children that hard work and a good education is what they need--not a MP3 players,cell phone and the like.
In the days and months ahead, this special blog will bring to life the people and community I've loved overlast nine years I've lived here. Thursday and Friday night Happy Hours at Nicks, our ageless pub. Wednesday nights on the lake watching John Mellencamp and his family water ski, the loss of a favorite football coach, the winning of a NCAA Basketball Championship and all the little things that make Bloomington, Indiana one of the most eclectic and memorable communities in Indiana--the Midwest and maybe even the United States.
Stay tuned. There's more to come.
