Abu Ghraib, Step Aside

It might be worse to be sentenced to time in Terra Haute IN.

We stopped at a restaurant which claimed to have been in existence forever, to serve excellent Italian food (meat, chicken, seafood and pasta) and to have introduced pizza to the city. There were several Harley's parked outside, weird people in the bar, and a couple sitting outside, who told us that they weren't sure if they had food or not at the restaurant. A waitress came out and told us that their kitchen was being renovated ( a likely story) and that they had pizza and, at night, a dinner special.

so much for that, so across the street to the Irish pub, where the Greek salad was hardly Greek and the turkey ruben took forever "because he had to carve the turkey" [loaf].

What a dead place Terra Haute seems to be, even though it is the home of Indiana State (send me anywhere but there, please).

But what a county court house.

And that is what Indiana seems to excel in. Late 19th century county courthouses.
