What to stash this week: Sheep and the city

Back in 2022, my husband and adventure buddy Mitch and I embarked on an epic cross-country road trip. One of our first stops was Indiana Dunes National Park. This is one of the country’s newest national parks — it had been a “national lakeshore” since 1966 and then was re-designated ...
