"If you build it, they will come." Sure, that was the voice talking to Kevin Costner and not our Admissions team, but this is the site of one of our three […]
Earlier this week strong thunderstorms ripped through C’ville. Nancy Doemel had a tree land on her deck. A locally-owned Kia, near the corner of Grant and Wabash, received an overnight convertible mod […]
Summer in Indiana. Yesterday was one of those typical Indiana summer days – one reserved for July and August, NOT June. Low 90s with plenty of humidity. Only one thing to do […]
It sounded like a great airshow last night at my house…the thunder just kept on coming. Problem = the thunder was accompanied by plenty of wind, rain, and lightning. So, the field […]
