Post # 13: Traveling and staying in Indianapolis Dec 24 – 31, 2008
It was an easy drive back from Chicago to Indianapolis on December 24th. The weather was clear and the traffic was light. We arrived at the house by 5 PM, turned up the heat and relaxed before having a dinner we salvaged from the freezer. The problem was however that all the food stores were closed both on this day and the next (Christmas), but somehow, we made it through by going to the Chinese Restaurant that is always open for Christmas. On Friday, we went to our favorite Mexican place near Keystone Ave and enjoyed it a lot. Saturday and Sunday were for rest, relaxation and packing for our return to Chicago on January 1st for our major stay.
On Monday, December 2th, Patty and I drove to the Red Lobster Restaurant on Shadeland Ave in Indy to meet with my old group from Lilly. Present were Larry Mann, Lisa Green, Rita Bowers, and added to that was my good friend and Colts’ buddy David Abbott. We had a great meal and caught up on everything that they are now involved with in their transition from being Lilly employees to now being employees of Covance Labs after the group was sold off to Covance in August. It was great to see everyone again. After lunch, Patty drove off shopping and David Abbott and I went driving around Indy for the purpose of transferring our Colts ticket account into his name.
