Civil War Monument below is on Main Street, was a war to end slavery and racism. The first was accomplished, the second is a continuing battle. 

Below that a view of the Great Miami River in Dayton. 




 
Went to Hollywood Cemetery. At left is the grave of Erma Bombeck, famous American humorist. Below that is the grave of the poet Paul Lawrence Dunbar. He was also a friend of the Wright Brothers who are buried near him, and are in the 3rd photo below. 

Finally, a nice view of Dayton from the heights at Woodlawn Cemetery. I enjoyed exploring the city and thank you for visiting my page!
