A Classic Fall Adventure

For starters, be sure to hit the Hayride, S'mores and Pumpkin Patch adventure up at The Stables at French Lick. If you do just one activity during your stay, this is definitely the one to star on your itinerary. It's all the best parts of fall, bundled into one. The kids will eat it up. And it'll bring back memories for the adult kids at heart. Plan a weekend around it – it goes every Thursday and Saturday during October.

Explore More of the Great Outdoors

If your timing's right, you can see the changing canvas of warm fall colors in the Hoosier National Forest. Enjoy the foliage on a horseback ride through the woods, a hike on the resort's 12-mile trail system, a surrey cart ride, or even a horse-drawn carriage ride in the evening.

Really, you could spend all day outdoors here. Adventure-seekers will love the archery range (ages 5 and up) and sporting clays range (ages 13 and up). For something more mellow, try the FootGolf course or head inside for a round of bowling at French Lick Springs Hotel. And if summer's warmth hangs on long enough, the resort's outdoor pools stay open well into October, weather permitting.

Take a Day Trip

You might be surprised how much this little corner of Indiana has to offer. Just in the town of French Lick, you can find an indoor water park, go-karts, mini golf, laser tag, train rides, and an escape room.

Within a 10 to 20-minute drive, you can see grizzly bears, giraffes and other wildlife at Wilstem Wildlife Park; spend a peaceful day on the water at Patoka Lake; or try and solve the fall corn maze at Bledsoe Farms.

Experience all the fall flavor in and around French Lick Resort by heading to frenchlick.com to start planning a fall break adventure.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles.
