Important Cincy Notes
I don't think I will be attending this year. :( Unless I can bribe
my way back east with the company... I doubt it though. I don't have
vacation built up yet. (I am working in Chicago to expense part of my
trip west)
For cruise ideas... Hmm. I know that there are some pretty good
twisty's on John Gray Road near Fairfield. It's not that long of a
stretch though. Maybe only a few miles. You could always drive
through Norwood. LOL It's straight road but the locals are what
makes it REALLY interesting. (I am SO kidding there)
