Last year we spent a month at Camp Atterbury about 30 miles south of Indianapolis. So this morning we drove through familiar territory - Columbus, IN (where we did our shopping) and Edinburgh, IN (the town closest to Camp Atterbury).
We switched from I-65 to I-69 at Indianapolis. We stopped for lunch at a rest area near Janney, IN which is about 40 miles NE of Indianapolis.

We stopped at the Michigan Welcome Center to get a road map. I also picked up some brochures on the places we’re going to be visiting while in Michigan. A very helpful employee assisted me in finding the brochures and he also made suggestions of places to see.
We arrived at the Charlotte, MI Wal-Mart Supercenter at 4:50 p.m. Charlotte is about 20 miles SW of Lansing, MI. We drove 317 miles today since leaving Scottsburg, IN.
Mike called the Wal-Mart a couple of days ago to see if it was OK to spend the night here and they asked that we park in the far end of the parking lot near Applebee’s. Applebee’s – they’re running those commercials for 2 for $20 meals that look really good!
We decided that this was a good time to check out their 2 for $20 offer. So after doing a little shopping at Wal-Mart, we walked over to Applebee’s.
Mike had the 3-Cheese and Chicken Penne dinner and I had the Quesadilla Burger and we had the Crunchy Onion Rings for our appetizer. The Quesadilla Burger was pretty good (not as filling as having a bun) and the 3-Cheese and Chicken Penne dinner was huge (more pasta than chicken). All in all, we were pretty happy with our dinner.
