Pittsburgh, PA!

Just returned from Pittsburgh on Sunday and am finally back to work. I attended the Heartland Travel Showcase with Crystal from the Visitors Bureau Thursday through Sunday of last week. It was a great trip; we met with 40 tour operators!

And of course we took some photos as well. Enjoy!

Luck o' the Irish


And we even made a new Pittsburgh friend! Although he didn't like it much when Crystal yelled, "GO COLTS!"

Adorable...

These were too cute ... I had to post them.

A few photos from the Lincoln Birthday celebration at the Indiana statehouse. We took a Lincoln stovepipe hat and a coon skin hat. They were pretty popular!


Too adorable for words.

Do you YouTube?

Our search for the actor that will portray Abraham Lincoln in LINCOLN has a fun, modern twist.

In honor of our search for Mr. Lincoln, and his 200th birthday today, we are inviting anyone with a video camera to participate by posting a dramatic or gently humorous rendition of the Gettysburg Address to YouTube. Once you posted the video email the video's link to info@lincolnamphitheatre.com for review. The videos will then be posted on our YouTube "channel."

The deadline for video submission is Thursday, February 26. YouTube users may rate their favorite LINCOLN videos up to March 5, when we will announce the winner. The lucky winner will receive two free tickets to the production of LINCOLN and four free tickets to Holiday World & Splashin' Safari, which is only five miles from Lincoln Amphitheatre.

Our YouTube channel is located here. Have fun and be creative!!

I'm Indy bound this morning on my way to the Lincoln birthday celebration at the statehouse in Indianapolis.

Melissa and Lauren from the Spencer County CVB are also here with me. Lincoln Amphitheatre will have an informational booth at the celebration along with a display from the flatboat trip and the booth from the visitors bureau.

If you're in the area ... the celebration will begin at 10:00 a.m. EST and end around 2:00 p.m. View the event program and read about other bicentennial events here.
