Dear Play Listers,

Just from eavesdropping in the Mirror Indy newsroom I know people around me are going to the Caribbean, the Grand Canyon and New York City.

But not all of us will get to travel — be it because of gas prices or because it simply is not a good time.

Whether you’re staying home because you have to or want to, we have a guide for a delightful staycation in Indianapolis. It packs outdoor music venues, great patios, good corndogs and the perfect sunset.

See our summer in Indianapolis tips here.
