I’ll take your word for it... are you nearby?
Do you know where Merom is, on the western border? I took my son to NC, from IL, to visit his mom, one summer, and we vowed to stay off the Interstate as much as possible. We somehow found our way to Merom. It was located near a bluff and you could literally look down into Illinois. It’s the only time I ever looked down into Illinois.
Along the Wabash ?
Nearby. Se Indiana is the state step child. We are separated from western part of state by forest and hills. An Hour + away from south edge of Indy , north edge of Louisville , west edge of Cinncinnati. But ignored by all not all bad
