We had a little rain this morning about four but it didn’t last long. We decided to head out for Indianapolis and found a place to stay just south in Greenwood at a Camping World. They have electricity hookups and you can stay for free. After unhooking we drove into downtown to the U.S.S. Indianapolis memorial. Mother’s brother and my uncle was on the ship on July 30, 1945, when a Japanese submarine sunk it. He lost his life with over a thousand other men. I called my mom and her three sisters and her brother to tell them we were at the memorial. We made several tracings of Uncle Albert's name from the monument. We then went to one brewpub and two breweries. Two weren’t open for tasting until Thursday, Friday and Saturday but they were really nice and let us taste the beers since we were from Houston and were only in town for one day. Jim then took me to eat at a restaurant featured on Diner’s Drive-Ins and Dives. We had really good comfort food. He had beef and noodles with mashed potatoes and green beans and I had meatloaf, mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. Yum. We left from there to go back to Camping World before rain set in because we are under a thunderstorm warning. Tomorrow after it goes through it will be a little cooler.
