‘Like a Food Truck:’ Illinois Lauches New Mobile DMV
Don't want to wait in line at the DMV? Illinois residents will soon be able to renew their drivers licenses in minutes, thanks to a new state initiative. Going to the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) is not something I enjoy. It's sort of like going to the dentist's office. You know you need to go, but you definitely have no desire to do so. When I moved back to Indiana earlier in 2024, my wife and I had to visit the BMV to transfer our drivers licenses from Kentucky and register our out-of-state vehicles with Indiana. It was a lot of paper work, but I will say the team at the Princeton BMV did a wonderful job and really made it as painless as possible.

All Can Enjoy Summer at These Accessible Indiana State Parks
Everyone can get out and enjoy summer in Indiana with mobility accommodations available at several beaches and swimming pools. My younger brother was born with Spina bifida, which, according to the Mayo Clinic, is a condition that occurs when the spine and spinal cord don't form properly. Growing up, I got to see how hard it was for someone with mobility restrictions to visit places without wheelchair accessible areas. However, in recent years, more efforts have been made to ensure everyone can enjoy recreational activities with ease.

Indiana Woman Finds ‘Invisible Bugs’ Building a Death Trap in Her Garden
I absolutely love the 'All Bugs Go to Kevin' Facebook group. It's the brainchild of Kevin Wiener from Evansville, and it's like a bug-lover's paradise.

Three-Day Murder Mystery Weekend at a Southern Indiana Hotel
Book your stay and see if you can crack the case during this murder mystery weekend at a popular Indiana hotel. I don't know about you, but I love a good murder mystery. Those are some of my favorite kinds of movies. Oftentimes, I wonder how I would fare trying to solve a murder mystery. Granted, I wouldn't want the responsibility of trying to solve a real one. But there are a lot of places that offer murder mystery experiences. Most of them are like murder mystery dinners or train rides that only last an hour. However, if you have seen any murder mystery movie, you know that the cases aren't typically solved in a day. That's why this Indiana murder mystery experience sounds exciting to me.

Gary Senise Lt. Dan Band Performing Free Concert at Fort Knox in KY
Forrest Gump is one of the most beloved movies of all time. The 1994 comedy romance was set in one of the most tumultuous and interesting times in history, the 1960s and 70s.
