Exclamation Excited for 580 miles!!!

Short notice trip from Minnesota to Indiana with my quilting girlfriend, we leave on Wednesday. My friend is planning on meeting some long lost family to learn more about her family-genealogy. About 28-30 years ago my hubby and I lived there...so I get to visit long lost friends and reconnect with them. Way back when I was busy with raising kids and learning how to budget no money. I wasn't a quilter, but I always wanted to visit Shipshewana and see all the nice quilts. HMMMM finally I get to do that, and with someone that has the same interests that I do, so we won't be rushed! This will be a short trip, so I've mapped out some spots to stop! We will want a Row by Row license plate from Illinois, Indiana, and maybe Michigan. I will be bringing my extra Minnesota license plates to see if anyone wants to trade. haha

Hope you have a wonderful time and a safe trip! And you won't be all that far from the Wisconsin state line, so you might get a license plate from there too.....Never mind about Wis., just noticed you are right next to the state line where you live.....

You'll enjoy Shipshewana, but keep in mind that everything there is closed on Sundays.
