NWI INGO General Thread #27 - Fresh Pink Air On US-30 smells like...

[KLB]

Saw it this morning when I was northbound, trying to figure out why the 109th exit was backed up for MILES. Apparently it was like that again this afternoon so I took 49 to 8 and over to CP

And 109th is still closed coming my way.

@Snapdragon, repeter and I were at Stracks on Cline Ave, and trying to find those Marie Calendar Scalloped Potatoes you were talking about.

Couldn't find them though.
Did you say you got them at Stracks?
Or someplace else?

Pretty sure it was Strack's, but I did shop at Meijer recently also. Here's the box. This is from the Meijer ad.

Time to stay off southbound 65 with the construction at 30 & 65 ramps. Traffic was backed up for miles and didn't know this till on my way to work and 109th exit sucked.

I65 northbound was down to one lane just north of Indianapolis.

This is a great event we can’t make it due to youth deer season but the people that run it are top notch.

Whatever happened with the Revere Riders and them?

The way I understand it they are basically the same course… just had different opinions on small things, so they split into the two groups. But I’m a nobody just what I have gathered piecing info together.

Wife takes Cline starting today.

And if you travel and get off at 80/94 and Ripley (rt51) going to be lane closures both directions thru November and then again next year for bridge reconstruction

Saw that. May have to reroute for a while. Cars that turn both ways on N Ripley after the tracks drive me insane without construction.

In @jedi's neighborhood:

Ugh. Burned off another quart of primer sealant. Do I take a trip to Menards now, or wait until tomorrow? Maybe wait.

Have you noticed the price of two guards is roughly the same as a gallon, not to mention a gallon goes twice as far.

Ugh, yep... never thought I would need a quart, let alone 2.

Welp, my massage therapist just told me she has carpal tunnel. Hopefully I get to keep my monthly appointment.

Dad had his hip replacement yesterday. Mom walked into a huge group of doctors, nurses, therapists, and social worker outside dad's room when she got to the hospital a little bit ago. They came in the room with me, aaaaanndd...long story short, he is so debilitated that he will need to either stay in the hospital's transitional care unit (like a nursing home) or go to a nursing home for awhile until he can function better - he prefers the hospital, but it may be up to insurance to decide which. He has 0 complaints with the hospital. Apparently you have to be categorized by some 3 day stay for this option of a 2 week stay. He said there is an 80% chance he'll get to stay. We're on the we'll see plan. They are also working out meds and what he can have.

Not sure where you are located. (Or him) My Mother went to rehab in Mishawaka. Nice place. Edison lakes Parkway. I think it was called Indiana rehab. I would not quite say she enjoyed it. (Who would enjoy a hospital) but she seemed to get great care.

Good luck with your Dad.

Batesville (so that Hillenbrand money build it). Same team does rehab in the nursing home and hospital. He said the hospital staff has been great (have a friend that works the ER there), billing has been bending over backwards, enjoys the food, so he is content.

Good to hear... I was in for a few days a while back and was getting stir crazy. I thought of taking syrup from breakfast and sticking tp to the window and spelling out HELP for entertainment.

Dewalt tools for the win!
Saw was dragged under the Nascar car for a loop around the track before it finally came out. It was damaged but still working.

Nascar only makes LEFT turns.

DeWalt implemented LEFTIST DEI programs.

Coincidence that its tools survived an attack from left turns? I don't think so.

Had there been a right turn, or a raccoon on that track, that tool would have exploded like butt of a truck stop whore after a lot lizard party at the Truck Stops of 'Murica center in Gary.
