A Shoe Tree Adventure

2017 New England, Indiana, Road Trip


Two days ago neither one of us had a burning desire to throw a pair of old shoes into a tree in the middle of the woods in Milltown IN, but after doing so today, it feels like we have accomplished a bucket list item. As we were leaving Bloomington yesterday we checked our Roadside America app. The Legendary Shoe Tree in Crawford County appealed to us since we were traveling with a pair of shoes that Steve had just replaced. So today as we left our campsite at Buffalo Trace we set our GPS for the shoe tree coordinates. Half an hour later we were slinging a pair of well worn Merrells onto a limb and logging our find in the nearby geocache.  By our rules we are now qualified to place an Indiana sticker on the new map we plan to get and put on the side of our new camper. The adventure has commenced!
