Dry Ridge, KY

We're here in Kentucky - our first trip to this state. Today it's sunny but windy. Haven't had a chance to see the town but the people at the hotel are very nice.


There's a nice window seat for us to enjoy.

It rained on the day we traveled back to Illinois.

Kempton, Il

So, Rita says we're going on a vacation. We were hoping for San Francisco or New York City but no we get the cornfields of Illinois. We're really here to help her brother with his new house. So Rita has been stripping wallpaper, buying paint supplies, spending money. Soon there will be lovely pictures of us in a cornfield - like this one.

Wheeling, WV & German Village Columbus, OH

So, were very behind on our blogging, but in our defense we have very little fingers and it's really hard to type!

After finishing in Weirton, Rita took us to Wheeling and the Oglebay Resort which is a beautiful city park, with a zoo, resort, golf course, restaurants, glass museum and gift shop. We spent several hours there. Then we went to Athens, Oh and stayed overnight at the very nice Hampton Inn. Rita had dinner with friends while we stayed at the hotel and watched tv. The next day we spent several hours in Columbus, OH walking around German Village and having lunch at a German Restuarant.
