Bloomington was selected as THE best parks and recreation department for a city it’s size in the country. Olcott is just one of the many beautiful parks. It has a trail network that can even be accessed by walking or running from my condo.

This is a great place to relax. A short trail and a nice place to kayak or canoe ... or just sit and read ... or sit and do nothing. :)

Beautiful trails and beautiful scenery throughout the park. It’s a great place to watch a sunrise or sunset — and offers a stunning array of colors in the fall! Definitely worth the short drive.

This is the most popular pizza place in town ... probably because most people think like I do — that it’s the best pizza in town! It is usually easier to park and get seated more quickly at the west side location in front of Kohl’s.

Although it apparently won’t come up on here, Red is one of the best places in town for Chinese food. IU students from China have repeatedly told me it has the closest thing to “real Chinese food.”

Looking for a local dive bar? This is one of the top places to go. The food menu is nothing elaborate, people are always surprised by how good it is ... especially for such reasonable prices. They have a couple of pool tables and they even have karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights if you're feeling bold (or just want to see others who are bold enough to sing).

Located in the historic Gables building, this unique restaurant is packed full of IU memorabilia. For history and/or music buffs, it's also pretty cool that Hoosier composer Hoagy Carmichael wrote the music for the song Stardust while sitting in this very building in 1927! (The lyrics were later written by Mitchell Parish).
