The World's Most Beautiful Places
The Story Inn has a long history dating back to 1882. It lies at the center of the town of Story, Indiana, which was founded by farmers trying make a living from the marginal soils of the hilly area that is Brown County, Indiana. The town and the inn went through various phases of growth and decline, and the surrounding countryside saw much of its original farming population leave and the land they left behind turned into Indiana’s largest state park.
A view of Trail 3 in Turkey Run State Park, near Marshall, Indiana. Trail 3 is quite unique as you follow a deeply carved sandstone gorge, surrounded by deep green forest, moss, and vegetation. Throw in a creek running through it all, ladders, and plenty of people and its almost like an obstacle course at a water park. Reminds me a little of the Narrows in Zion Canyon National Park, but over a much shorter distance, and with a lot more climbing, and quicker twists and turns.
