Rick was born and raised in Fairborn, OH, a small town near Dayton. We are in town for a few days to visit his father, Dick, and brother, Mike. We are staying in a campground which is inexplicably named "Tomorrow's Stars." Its good points include large level campsites, some really lovely old maple trees for shade, and an inexpensive and clean laundry. Its bad points include lots of traffic noise...it's sandwiched between Rt 40 and I-70...and yes, you guessed it, a train. Luckily the train is far enough away not to be a major nuisance.
Dick and Mike came over to our campground today for lunch. We had a campfire and roasted hotdogs. I made chili in the crockpot and barbequed lima beans. I baked shortcakes in the convection oven and we had strawberry shortcake. It was a party!
Tomorrow we have a short drive to Columbus where we'll be spending the holiday weekend and visiting Rick's son Mark and his wife Cristin.
