Ever since I was a small child, I loved to dive down to the bottom of pools and retrieve things that I had thrown in the water and sank to the bottom. I would spend hours entertaining myself with this solitary game. I loved it. Wherever I could find a deep pool, I was diving.
One of the pools that I loved to free dive in was the Dome Pool at the French Lick Springs Hotel. The pool, at its deepest point, was 12 feet deep. My brother, sister, and I played in the deep end all day long and into the evening. My mom and dad threw quarters into the pool until their arms were aching. It’s one of my favorite memories at French Lick.

Wonders of Wildlife National Museum and Aquarium is once again up for consideration as America’s Best Aquarium through a USA TODAY readers’ choice poll.
The 350,000-square-foot attraction has 1.5 miles of trails to explore and houses 35,000 live fish, mammals, reptiles and birds representing 800 species.
The aquarium became the Midwest’s only sea turtle rescue facility after it rescued 12 endangered loggerhead sea turtles that were “cold-stunned” and stranded on a beach in December 2020, per Wonders of Wildlife. The sea turtles made a full recovery and were released back into the wild in April 2021.
Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris said it is an honor for Wonders of Wildlife to be named as America’s Best Aquarium once again.

Free Fishing Weekends for Kentucky & Indiana 2021
If you love fishing or you re already making your summer plans we have the dates for the Free Fishing Weekends for Kentucky & Indiana.
My husband, Joe, has always loved fishing. He loves going anytime he has a little bit of time on his hands which doesn t happen often.
What Free Fishing Weekend in Kentucky means is that you are not required to have a license or permit to fish. This means Ky residents and even non-residents are allowed to fish at any waterfront public property. If you don t have a license and would like to here is how you can get one.
