INDIANAPOLIS — I was dreading the struggle to claw through the Indianapolis beltway to reach the exit for Interstate 74 on the southeastern edge of the city. Once that threshold was crossed and there was a little time to loosen the grip on the wheel, I was still anxiously waiting for a chance to slip off the highway and head to the country. A trip through the town square of Greensburg allowed for a quick glance at the famous courthouse and soon I was on U.S. Route 421, heading south toward Osgood.
