Mike Braun's journey to the Indiana governor's office

Описание: For the last decade, Mike Braun has traveled full speed down life in the political fast lane; from local school board member to state lawmaker to U.S. senator and, next month, to the Indiana governor's office.

But home, he says, has been and always will be Jasper.

"I'm here every weekend," Braun told 13News anchor Dustin Grove as they walked the Braun's rural property, encompassing more than 160 acres of forest and farmland just outside the town of 16,000.

"I call it my therapy," Braun said. "It's unlimited exercise and things you can do in the woods, an excellent investment, and it's all out my front door."

During his six years in the U.S. Senate, Braun, 70, said he returned home every weekend except for a few.

Braun and his wife, Maureen, met in grade school and grew up in Indiana.
