I have a love affair with staying at non-chain hotels. Luxury inns, haunted places, and historic hotels all hold a special charm for me. I’m always on the hunt for that one special place at a destination to lay my head. I found the historic and gorgeous Brookstown Inn in Winston-Salem, NC to be the…
The final leg of my Indiana Foodways Adventure continued through Northeast Indiana. Here, I found the famous Mrs. Wicks pies, a steakhouse where the ponies run, sweet treats, coffee and a few unexpected surprises.
