FALL! We actually tried to get someone to get a picture of us in front of some trees, but evidently she didn't know how to work the camera. I had to take these pictures while we were driving back to the airport. It was so much prettier!

This is the Ohio river. It is the border between Indiana and Kentucky (little geography lesson here)

Houses like this were everywhere. We thought they were so cool.

This was the Thomas Edison house. Evidently he lodged here for a while. Not as exciting as we thought it would be and it wasn't even open.

Ok sorry. I know it has been awhile since I have blogged.

This last weekend, Davin and I flew to Indianapolis/Louisville for a leadership convention. We flew into Indianapolis because it was cheaper and drove down to Louisville. It was about an hour and a half drive, but what beautiful country. It was so nice to actually SEE fall colors all over and so many trees! As we drove into Louisville, it was storming pretty bad. The sky was dark and the rain was coming down heavy. We kept hearing these siren noises. At first we thought there was a train or something nearby. Then we realized it might be tornado sirens. We turned on the radio and sure enough we were driving in the middle of a tornado warning. SCARY! The newscaster was telling everyone in downtown Louisville (exactly where we were) to get indoors and seek safety (basement, bathtub) NOW. I really was terrified. I was literally shaking. We go to our hotel and checked in just in time to watch the storm pass us. Tornados never did actually touch, but it was quite an experience nonetheless.

We had such a great time. We spent some time on Sunday to do a little sightseeing. Unfortunately most thing were closed. We ended up spending some time with some friends down at the Ohio river. It was a great weekend.
