Back home again… – Day 53

… in Indiana! Whitney and I burst out in the state song when we crossed the IN/IL state border, just as family tradition dictates. It kind of amazes me I still know the words!

We left Champaign this morning for the short shot (120ish miles) to Noblesville, IN where Whitney resides. We got Crystal parked in their neighbor’s driveway (thanks Kevin and Monica!) since Whitney’s has too much elevation change and we bottom out.

After getting settled in, Tim (my brother in law) was home and we went out on the lake. They love to surf behind their boat (it’s designed for it), and I gave it a whirl. It was awesome, and I even got up and into the wave! I wasn’t able to drop the rope… yet. But I will give it another chance for sure.

After shredding the lake, we came back, got cleaned up, then headed to their club across the cove for dinner. The food and company was great! My sister and her family have a pretty good set up for their everyday life.

After staying up late for 3 nights in a row, Whitney and I called it an early night. Sleeping in a real bed is pretty sweet, as is a non-public shower. Can’t wait for more water sports and a reading day tomorrow.
