    MICHIGAN CITY — Entering Bill Cook’s new home, visitors will encounter floors paved with century-old bricks culled from La Porte’s historic roadways; walls built from the logs of the county’s oldest standing cabin; and even blue-tinted glass melted from the sands of Michigan City’s long lost Hoosier Slide.

    WESTVILLE — Flying a drone loaded with meth, fentanyl, cocaine, marijuana, cell phones and more to inmates in the Westville Correctional Facility turned out to be less than a good idea for one 29-year-old Hammond man.
