This picture is from my 2015 Dandy Trail day trip. The Dandy Trail was a scenic loop that circled Indianapolis, IN, in the 1920s. I would have known nothing of this loop were it not for friend and blogger Jim Grey who shared old photos and other knowledge of it on his blog. I combined my drive of the Trail with a gathering of area road fans at the historic Oasis Diner in Plainfield. It’s an informal group that often includes mister Grey but this time sadly did not.

Trip Peeks are short articles published when my world is too busy or too boring for a current events piece to be completed in time for the Sunday posting. In addition to a photo thumbnail from a completed road trip, each Peek includes a brief description of that photo plus links to the full-sized photo and the associated trip journal.
