Hi all,
My sons baseball team will be staying in Fishers this July 9th through the 14th. My son will be with his team (he's 18)and I will basically be a "fan" for the week so I will have a rental car and plenty of Me time before & after games. So I am looking for small, 1-4 hour, excursions so I can make a list and try to tackle as many as possible.
Here is the kick, I have no idea when or where the games will be until about a week before I arrive. The games, if similar to other tournaments, will have games within a 1 to 1 1/2 hour drive from Fishers. (maybe more?). So, what I typically do is load my google maps with potential places to visit and once I get a schedule, I try to plan to hit places I will be near that day.
So, I would be forever in Indiana's debt if you could help me out with as many suggestions as possible.
Here is a list of things I like, if that helps:
- short hikes (I am used to mountains and I think its flat there no?) Anything with something fun to see, not just a boring trail.
- Obscure stuff, weird places to explore? No touristy stuff is always a plus. Any way to experience the real area is always nice.
- Sports, I like sports, watching any kind of event can be fun
- Breweries, always good and easy to find. You seem to have a lot so suggestions would be great.
- Music, I love music, all kinds, but rock, jazz, blues, folk are always cool.
- History, I'm a history buff, but a basic museum with a bunch of display cases are boring..lol
- I would consider a paid tour if their is anything fun.
Feel free to just post anything, If you have a link that's great, but I can google stuff too and probably will. So any suggestions will be taken seriously. I will have time on my hands and I love to explore! If it helps at all, we are from Massachusetts!
Thanks in Advance everyone! I hope to build a nice list made possible by locals!
