May 30 - June 4, 2024 - Next we're off for a visit with Mom. Ann & Erich met us there for part of the time, which was nice. We celebrated Mother's Day and Mom's 89th birthday, went to Sandy Springs Brewery in Minerva and of course played lots of games.

June 20, 2024 - The Swimming Olympic Trials are being held in Indy, at Lucas Oil Stadium. I bought tickets months ago and randomly picked a day during the week of the trials and it looks like it's a great day for a bike ride. It's a bit hot, but we love to be able to ride downtown. The morning session is from 11-1, so we hit the trail at about 9:45 and got there right at 11. It was amazing to see the 10 lane pool that had been built in the middle of the Colts Stadium. The Convention Center and Georgia St were both open, so we spent the afternoon wandering around downtown.
It's a 9 mile bike ride to Lucas Oil from our house
Water break
The stadium is decked out with swimming banners
Crazy pool, looks like it's always been there. We got to watch the Women's 200 back, the Men's 50 free and Men's 200 IM.
All lanes lead to Indy
Who knew Indy had a 60 foot Eiffel Tower?
US flag made of lane lines
riding by Monument Circle
A stop at the Ratskeller for pretzels and beer
June 25 - 27, 2024 - We ended the busy month of June with a trip to Ann & Erich's. We had fun at Jungle Jim's, Costco and blueberry picking
Jungle Jims is a crazy place
Costco Sundaes (some people bring their own nuts and bananas)
A walk around VOA
