Just getting back from CINCINNATI for Thanksgiving. Sorry I didn't get to answer all your posts - but I am back and will start up again.
I only had a light jacket - which is all we need in GA unless something ODD happens to the weather.
Sorry for all the photos! I want to make a MEMORY here.
Tuesday:
We always start a trip with a sausage McMuffin - no cheese and no egg - and a senior coffee - this trip was no different.
We drove a few hours and stopped for lunch at a Mexican Diner- the food was actually GREAT.
Now Georgia is FULL of hills. We are originally from Chicago, but we are used to the hills now. Coming back north the first thing I noticed was the land getting FLAT and all the farms there.
There is ALWAYS construction when we drive north. ALWAYS.
The border between Kentucky and Ohio is a river - the Ohio River - the only way to get there is by a bridge. They have about five or six of them. One year the bridge we needed had been HIT and this year one bridge part of one of the bridges had a FIRE burn part of it.
We made pretty good time, and our first stop is ALWAYS Kroger. We have Kroger here in GA - but compared to the Kroger there - it is a BABY Kroger. The one in Cincinnati is HUGE. It has EVERYTHING you could dream of there.
My son gifted us with a B&B. It was very nice - because there were five of us coming up. The night we pulled in there was a DEER in front of it. I think we saw ten baby deer along the side of the road coming up - it was so sad to see them.
My two babies - 47 and 49.
My daughter in law is the best cook EVER. When we got in that night we had a pot roast, the next night chicken sliders, and then Thanksgiving - a delicious meal. The last night we went out to eat at the Rusty Bucket.
Played cards and talked. Kind of a real grown-up conversation too! We REMINISCED and we talked, we laughed, we told stories . . . .
PLAYED some outdoor soccer games.
A loom to make fabric.
Went to the city to see some lights.
Friday - Restaurants galore in Hyde Park. Not restaurant chains - but individual little shops.
Grater's Ice Cream (try chocolate raspberry)
