airport day.

I love moving walkways.

I can’t help it, I just do.

there are many things I love about airports, but I think moving walkways might just be the best thing.

my time in Bloomington, like pretty much everyone else that I know, is quickly drawing to a close. I've been thinking a lot about next steps recently... and I realized that, in bracing myself for everyone leaving and trying to plan our own "what's next", I forgot how many things I've meant to do over the last few years and just never got around to. I think I'm dedicating my days off (and the off-half of my work days!) to completing all of those things.

the list includes, but is not limited to:

*doing "boats" on lake monroe (THANK YOU DOMEY for making this a reality this weekend!!!)

*riding out to the quarries (and maybe jumping in!)

*riding to the porthole inn on lake lemon and eating their famous catfish and hushpuppies

*winetrials to butler winery

*see a movie at the drive-in (been there, but not for a movie!!)

*go to karaoke at the office lounge

*drink a WHOLE yard (not a half) at the lion

*eat at hinkle's

*go to the taste of bloomington

*introduce bella to water at drool in the pool

*eat at the scenic view

*

suggestions are welcome, as i know there's so many things i want to do here! i'm going to repeat a few of my favorites, like going to the speedway! hell, maybe i'll race the bloomington crit for the first time! it's going to be a great summer, and capping it all off with the biggest first on august 6!
