A visit to the Lilly Library at the University of Indiana with members of the Caxton Club was our reason for driving to Bloomington, and we decided to extend the trip to see more of Indiana. In rolling Brown County, we passed covered bridges and small towns with names like Bean Blossom, Stone Head, and Gnaw Bone. We saw extraordinary buildings by world-class architects in Columbus. We enjoyed the collections at Indianapolis Museum of Art and toured the house and gardens of the Lilly Estate. In Auburn, we were impressed by the craftsmanship of some of American’s finest cars at the automobile museum. In five days, we learned that there is much more than cornfields in Indiana.
