Indiana is beautiful in the spring...very lush and flowery. However, compared to Montana we are very FLAT. The northern 2/3 of my state are glacial till plains, and there are only small hills. I love living here, however. It is NORMAL. Come visit us one May...you get the best of our weather, and you can go to the Indy 500.
I may visit sometime, it sounds pretty to me! Sorry about your knee:(
Always think of "The Girl of the Limberlost" when thinking of Indiana. Our teacher read to us every Friday before school let out. Wasn't the "Hoosier Poet" from Indiana?
