Summer: Day 1 (June 20, 2020)


First day of Summer and got up early to get out before the heat builds up. It will feel like summer with temperatures in the 90's today and humidity to match. It was fun to be out through, as there were a number of motorcycles also out with the same idea. Went into Fairborn, that is where I got the photo of the C-17's directly below. I also stopped at Lefty's there for the first time for breakfast and a cup of coffee. I highly recommend this place, it was very good.  
Rode down the road toward Enon and kept going not that its not an interesting town, it is, but just to do some exploring. Came across the "Pennsylvania House". Interesting place with a cool history. I have the historical marker and the house photographed. I have information also in another photo about US 40. Rode a good part of that yesterday, its a favorite road here for me.  
At left is inside Lefty's (mentioned above) then below is a couple of photos of Ferncliff Cemetery in Springfield. Very big and interesting with a neat Veterans section. They also have some monuments of sort about former wars, that is the top photo above. 
The ride was a lot of fun, always nice to explore new things and see new sights. I also visited Wittenberg College. Very interesting old school dating to 1845. More photos can be seen on my Racing with the Wind page.
