Hey Friends, it's "Joni On The Go" for an exciting musical adventure and catch up with the joyful, soulful, singer and songwriter Jennie DeVoe! She's back on stage kicking things off at the Brown County Playhouse . February, 21st for one night only. Vibe to Jennie's unique blend of R&B/Blues with a dash of hippie-funk and some great storytelling. Get tickets here . I've known Jennie for years and she was one of the FIRST artists to come and play LIVE on the FOX59 Morning show. In 2004, LIVE music on a morning news program was just crazy and no other local TV station was doing that combo thing of entertainment in the studio and going back to the anchor desk for hard news. As a music & entertainment & traffic reporter I knew this concept would work. After convincing the powers that be (Producers, News Directors etc...) I reached out to Jennie and she graciously agreed to perform LIVE at 7am in the morning! I also knew one of our first performers had to be an artist who had a lot of depth and soul and love for the community. No brainer, Jennie Devoe to the FOX 59 stage! And viewers loved the experience. Jennie brings her talent and heart to every stage and it's one of things I admire most about her not only as an artist but as a person. Going to a Jennie DeVoe show is a true experience. You soak in the sultry, vibrant sound that she creates through the Blues, R&B, Pop, and her unique blend of what she calls "hippie-funk" and it's captivating It was fun to sit down and chat with the Divine Jennie DeVoe and find out what's next in her music bag of magic!

"A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself." I've always been a dog person and have had a dog in my life since I was a toddler and sharing my Cheerios with 'Muffin, my parents first "fur baby" before I came along. She was my protector, my play buddy, and ate the yucky stuff I didn't want off my plate and she was also my first love affair with a furry friend. My family always adopted shelter dogs and when I was out on my own I kept with that loving tradition with shelter dogs and rescue dogs Cuddles, Ginger, Vinnie & Mona, and now Lilly & Sonny (brother and sister). The pain is unbearable when we lose them but the love they give us unconditionally is more than they will ever know. I'm proud of my shelter pups and aways say that they rescued me! And making sure that they are happy, loved and taken care of is a top priority in my life. And that includes plenty of recreation. And if you're a pet mom like me, there are times the guilt sets in because we can't them out as much to run, and play, and socialize. Because dogs are pack animals and need that socialization.
Hey friends it's Indiana Joni with a day trip adventure in the beautiful Fort Ben area of Indianapolis! "Fort Ben" is an historic district and surrounding community in Lawrence, Indiana, that grew around the former Fort Benjamin Harrison military post. The area blends its historical military past with modern amenities and recreational opportunities. I think it's the perfect outing for a girls trip, family trip, or even a picnic in the park for a date. Hidden treasures surrounding Fort Ben include The Indianapolis Salt Cave , a tranquil Halotherapy center located in a historic firehouse. If the great outdoors and nature are your thing, you should explore the extensive trails and natural beauty of Fort Harrison State Park. Other unique spots include the Theater at the Fort for community spirit, live theater productions or a movie!

Hey friends it's Indiana Joni and Fall has officially arrived (Sept. 22nd) bringing with it a canvas of glorious colors to enjoy in the great outdoors! I love Autumn for the apple picking, corn mazes, pumpkin patch visits, festivals and hayrides but especially for a Fall road trip to soak in the beauty of nature. If you're looking for the perfect day trip to be awed by all the bright and bold colors of Fall, one of my favorite destinations is Brown County State Park . As a kid one of my first New Palestine grade school field trips (remember those!) was to BCSP. It was love at first sight with all the majestic trees and the fiery red, gold, orange, yellow leaves just ripe for the picking and the fallen leaves lining the park like a royal blanket! For me an annual road trip to Brown County to witness the changing leaves is nostalgic and reminds me of simple care free days growing up in the Hoosier State. And as an adult it's one of my favorite annual "besties" road adventures to make new memories and still get the warm and fuzees from being a kid!
