As I think this will be my last long car trip, I decided to start my journey home by driving through Indianapolis on Meridian Street one last time, which is lined with beautiful mansions. I have made this journey many times, but never cease to marvel at these amazing houses, one after the other. There are also some huge churches as well, which are truly majestic. All in all, it is a very enjoyable drive. I turned off to visit the Indianapolis Museum of Art, another museum I have never before visited. This is turning into a trip of many firsts.
Another absolutely beautiful museum, with acres of landscaped grounds, right in the heart of Indianapolis. If I lived here, I would definitely be back for many visits.
