Ohio and the Old Kentucky Home

We arrived in Dayton, Ohio to a wonderful reception from our UCLA college friends Heinz and Sue Robota.  They had our weekend all planned and it was action packed!   On Friday we went to the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base to see the Air Force Museum and to see the lab where Heinz works in developing alternative jet fuel.

                                             Mr. and Mrs. President - vote Freitag!!!!

Our Saturday adventure took us to Kentucky where we did our pilgrimage to the National Corvette 

Museum
