Bloom in Bloomington
If you find yourself in one of the nicest towns in the heartland of America than you must be checking into a fabulous Bloomington hotel . This is the home of Indiana University which in its self is a main attraction. It ensure there are at least 40,000 students living in town for the winter. It is the largest campus in the state of Indiana and is considered the most beautiful in the country. Most of the the university was built out of the limestone that comes from the local area. Bloomington is also the home of a few other universities such as the Jacobs School of Music, the Kelley School of Business, Indiana University Maurer School of Law-Bloomington to name just a couple.
Other reasons that bring visitors to this town are some of the big employers that are here. The Bloomington Hospital, General Electric, Otis Elevator, Hoosier Energy and Baxter BioPharma Solutions have work being done here. While people may be coming for some of these big reasons there are some small and quaint things to see and do while in this area. One of my favorite things to do in new areas that I visit is see if there are any good beer or wine companies. Well, I don’t think of Indiana when I think of wine but there are a couple of fine winery’s in the area. Oliver Winery and Butler Winery both seem to have some really nice bouquet’s. Then there is always some history to learn about an area and Bloomington does have some museums to search through. A rather unique one would be is found at the Indiana University Department of Apparel Merchandising and Interior Design, the Elizabeth Sage Historic Costume Collection is just exquisite. So when you pull yourself away from the antique shopping stop by and see this wonderful exhibit.
