Reporting from SFPPN HQ, Grove City, OH
As you complete a vacation, you pass through familiar territory. This was doubly true today, as we drove from my college town to northeast Ohio where I grew up, and finally to home. So, I just have a few notes to wrap things up.
First off, the hotel was VERY nice. In fact, I was shocked we got such a good deal on it. It was a “business hotel”, and so I guess they don’t get a lot of Sunday night business? I checked the rates for next weekend (College Homecoming), and it’s at least 3X as expensive.
We just make a few stops on the way home—to have lunch with some old friends, and a local orchard we like to visit when we get up that way. We left with apples, pumpkins, cheese, squash, and hedge apples (look it up).
Then a boring trip down I-71 to central Ohio and home.
My top memories of this vacation?

and spending lots of time with my lovely wife.
That does it. We’re wiped out—time to unpack and do laundry.
I promise to do more blog entries soon.
