Giant Chair...Richmond, IN



A giant chair? Well...I just have to see this! 






Located in Richmond, IN, this very welcoming piece to "sit a spell" is just outside the door of Richmond Furniture Gallery. Unfortunately, you are not able to actually sit in it (boo), but it is very cool to see and you do walk under it to enter. 

We heard that the Depot District, located in this area is a lovely place to walk through and has amazing town murals, but it was raining when we visited so I chose to jump out and grab this pic and save the rest for another time when we have nice weather. 

If you are ever in the area, be sure to stop by 180 Fort Wayne Ave and have a look. It's FREE has a nice store to browse through as well  :) 


Curiosity continues...

Birthplace of the Coca-Cola Bottle, Terre Haute, IN

Some of the most famous things in the world have to have been created somewhere. So, what is Terre Haute, IN famous for? The birthplace of the Coca-Cola bottle!  In the year 1915, the Coca Cola Company sent out a challenge across the US to design a distinct bottle to house their product. The Root Glass Company in Terre Haute, IN had the winning design thus making their city the birthplace. We found the location of the Root Glass Company. Just a marker here now.  If you want to have some fun throughout Terre Haute, visit the The Coke Bottle Sculpture Project. The 6-foot-tall Coke Bottle sculptures throughout the city show how proud this area is of what they brought to the world. The sculpture is part of the Root Family Public Art Project. I found this example of one of  their bottle sculptures online.  Print a map of the bottles here and have some fun with the family! https://www.thehaute.org/birthplace-of-the-coca-cola-bottle Don't forget to check out the fun mu...

Old Gas Station/Garage House, Terre Haute, IN

  When my husband and I were planning our summer road trip in the midst of the pandemic, we were having a hard time finding any fun out and about. Water parks were closed, theme parks..closed. Even hotels were for essential workers at the time. So, what would any mom of 8 do in this situation? Find the fun where you can! My first thought to myself was, "Wonder if there are any places out there that you can stay where the stay itself is a ton of fun?" I immediately went to "Home Away" to see what I could rustle up that wouldn't break the bank. That is when I came across this place.... First look at this place and we knew we needed to stay here!!! I mean, besides the fact that it was once an old filling station and garage, what other place to stay has their own mascot: The owner was very good about including photos of some of the fun, but left some for that element of surprise. We didn't expect to see this when we pulled up... From the second we pulled onto th...
