Here's some more bits from Indianapolis...
This cauldron sits where the Pan American Games Torch Relay ended in August 1987.
The convention center has some fun sculptures on the outside.
Across the street from the convention center is Victory Field, where the minor league team the Indians play.
In front of the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art is the Richard and Billie Lou Wood Fountain featuring deer.
Wisdom Keepers is a sculpture by Bruce LaFountain (a Turtle Mountain Chippewa born in 1961).
Allan Houser's Morning Prayer from 1987 is in the back garden of the museum.
Water Whispers is a 2005 sculpture by Truman Lowe (a Ho-Chunk born in 1944).
Near the convention center is Hudnut Commons, dedicated to the Honorable William H. Hudnut III, mayor from 1976 to 1992. They even have a casual statue of him.
A few blocks away is the state capitol and several civic buildings with the usual array of patriotic statues and decorations.
Just down the street is the Soldiers and Sailors Monument, even larger than the Washington and Hendricks monuments put together!
Nearby is the Indiana Repertory Theatre with the world's fanciest crosswalk.
