Sun Oct 16, 2:00 pm: Zionsville

The next day, we headed down to Zionsville which is an extremely quaint small town/suburb of Indianapolis, and we ate lunch. I got biscuits and gravy which I guess is the midwest/southern version of poutine. It's really hard to get good biscuits and gravy in California, so I was glad to get a chance on my last brunch day out here.

After brunch, Russell headed over to the Zionsville wine store that evidently had a great selection. So he stocked up Patricia and Stuart's wine cellar with about six cases of wine. We need to make sure they have enough until our next visit out and who knows when that will be!
