I'm back

I didn't even warn anyone that I was heading down to Indiana for my cousin's wedding. I'm back now, so posting shall resume.
Here's something I never knew before: There are no direct routes via expressway from my home in Michigan to Indianapolis. Yahoo maps suggested a lovely, roundabout route along Lake Michigan and through Gary, Indiana. (This time of year, "lovely" is sarcastic due to lake-effect snow.) Google maps suggested a much straighter inland route through Fort Wayne, which was unfortunately rendered impractical due to a stopover in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Baby's Daddy and I ended up driving a several hours down a divided highway complete with traffic lights and 35-mph speed zones. Not the best choice we ever made, but not the worst, either.
Welcome back! And now I'm going to have the Gary Indiana song from The Music Man stuck in my head all day. Thank you ever so much.
Shana, you're ever so welcome.
Actually, I guess I'm just ignorant, b/c I had to look that one up.
Yikes, I just listened to a thirty-second clip on iTunes. I can see how a song like that could get suck in your head.
