In Search Of America — My InSearchOfAmerica has taken me to Madison Indiana on several occasions.  The most recent trip was in August of 2016 when I snapped the following gallery of pictures.  With so many small towns  that are dead or dying  it is nice to see some flourishing. Madison Indiana is on the Ohio River and once gained its livelihood from barge traffic.

I think I need to explain all the hog butts in one of these pictures.  I got to town a couple of days after a major event based around pork BBQ.  They were gathering up all the decorated plastic pigs that adorned the main street for that event.
