Visit an old friend after the race




With the race activities over for the day. The sun again was low on the horizon...another full day had passed and the activities were beginning to slow down for the day.

It was time for me to leave the track and move towards my second goal for the day...to visit an old friend - The Indiana University campus. My wife went to Indiana University and I went to Purdue University back in the late 60's/ Early 70's. the two campuses were about 100 miles or so apart...I burned up that highway between the two during those days!

I had visited the chapel many times but never took the time to go inside and today I was going to look on the other side of the old wooden door. The inside of the chapel matched the feeling of the outside...quaint, quiet and almost fairy-tale like. The warmth of the wooden beams and ceiling invited any who stepped within to remain a while. I did.

What a lovely chapel. I can imagine the need for a quiet place like that in a university campus.

Equally beautiful inside and out. What a lovely, peaceful setting.

Dawn Treader...the only sad thing is that ... it doesn't get used that much!
