Tuscan roads, take me home

·

When I think of Bloomington, a town smack in the middle of our nation’s heartland, I’m reminded of the endless countryside, rustic houses and warm summer evenings when friends gather around a campfire at night, telling jokes and reminiscing about the past. While people may not see Italy as a likely comparison to the Midwest, there are more similarities than meet the eye.
