Get yourself down to the in to bike, run, or walk on the Monon South! Thanks to the Next Level Trails initiative through you can explore small towns and scenic spots in the southern part of Indiana. You’ll follow the old Monon railroad line which is a great part of Indiana’s history. Maybe one day you could bike the entire state on the Monon!

No excuses this summer! It’s time to &Visit Indiana and Get Indiana.

💛⭐️🎉 It’s my 50th episode! Let’s celebrate by hearing from Brandt Baughman, the Director of Indiana State Parks. I really enjoyed getting to know Brandt. His family history with state parks goes back to the beginning. His ideas and care for the parks are evident as well. Plus, you’ll find out what animal he’d still love to see at a park! Get Indiana.

📍Starve Hollow State Recreation Area Deam Lake and Starve Hollow State Recreation Areas is an intimate and beautiful spot for camping, fishing, boating, or hiking. Plus, its history as a tree nursery (which is now just down the road) and the neighboring fish hatchery make this park and the area the mother of the state! There’s also easy access to Jackson-Washington State Forest for some very challenging hikes. Come learn why you need to put this park on your list to visit! Indiana State Parks
