lol Yes, I'm afraid they're going to have a visit from Mom, most definitely! And I have another grown kid in DE, with her husband and my only (so far) two grandkids, so it looks like I'll be spending some time on the road in the next couple years. lol Sure, I'll stop for a visit with you too. Would be fun. Brian tells me he's got an apartment on the north side of Cincinnati, about a mile from where he'll be working. It's on the third floor, so he'll have a nice view of what ever there is to see. Nice to hear that it's rolling and pretty down there. I was thinking it might be flat, as it is towards the north end near the big lake. He had also told me that it's quite the big city, with art and libraries and all. It's got 'culture'. Not sure what he'll do with it. lol he's usually on a computer in his spare time. I'm hoping he'll discover some snow sports in the winter. We checked around for familiar things. The closest Ikea is in Pittsburg. Don't know what else he'll recognize. None of the banks are the same. I pointed out Crawford Co. PA on the map and told him we had relatives that lived there 1825-1885. He seemed a bit interested, he does like history. It'll be a nice change for him, a bit of adventure.

But very pretty, when the season's are right. All in all there is a lot of culture, art, and a great Library for genealogy, they have the top 3rd library in the country. One whole floor is dedicated to Genealogy and they have the info for most all states. It has a wealth of information. Do they know where they are going to live yet? There are a lot of Civil War battle sites in this area, and lots and lots of fun stuff to do. Well, I hope that means you will be coming to visit.
