Rising Sun, Aurora, and Lawrenceburg, Indiana (October 13-15, 2023)

Scenes from the trip from October 13-15 where we visited Rising Sun, Aurora and Lawrenceburg, Indiana. Just a few highlights here of some of the sights to be seen in those towns. 

Was a great time along the banks of the Ohio River which is where these cites  can be found. Weather was pretty good, with some rain but mostly at night. Looking forward to our next visit.

Festival of Flight October 7, 2023)

One of my favorite yearly local events is the Festival of Flight. The best part to me, is the parade held on the first Saturday of the event. Unique in that airplanes are in the parade. Those seen at left and below are just under half of the ones that were in the parade. There were of course marching bands, cars and other things common to Parades. 

The event was a lot of fun on a chilly October day. I went down and explored the booths, had some lunch there, and...well there is a lot going on in New Carlisle for this festival!

Wheeling, WV and Cumberland, MD Trip (September 25-29, 2023)

Great time in late September traveling to a couple of favorite places. Went to Wheeling, WV which can be seen in the photo at left and the bridge photo. Stopped at Coleman's for their amazing fish sandwich, and saw the bridge from Wheeling Island. In Cumberland, had hot dogs, visited the HQ and a church in that fine city. Have a view from the hotel, and finally a photo my wife took as we traveled in West Virginia on the way home. It was a wonderful adventure.
