It's our last night in Maryland...

The movers have packed, loaded, and taken all of our stuff westward towards our new place in Ohio. We are staying in a hotel nearby, and will pick up the cats in the morning and then head west! The cats are probably have a big party now, sans catnip, as that was packed, also!!

Funny, but maidinmaryland is moving back to Ohio where madeinmaryland was made originally!!

GO BUCKEYES!!

I originally moved to Ohio in '70 at the tender age of 12. Left in '75.

From there, it was Maryland, Colorado, Arizona, Michigan, then Texas for 24 years. I never thought I'd end up back in Ohio, but I'm glad I did!

Hope the move goes smoothly.

Safe travels and happy landing!

Where in Ohio are you heading?

It's a pretty state...

Even in the summer, there are rivers with water flowing!

I left Ohio 36 years ago, moved around the country, and now live in .....

Maryland!

I have no desire to live in the mid-west ever again.

Best of luck to you and your family.

I hear it during pro games on NBC. They have this thing where they have the starters introduce themselves during the first few plays. They say their names and the school they attended. When it's Ohio State, they always say "THE! Ohio State University." I don't get it.

I own a small condo in Miami Township, that I have rented, not far from where you are. I wanted to sell it, but had absolutely no luck. Maybe next year if the economy continues to improve.

My nephew was born and raise in Ottawa, Oh. (Putnam County) and now he and his wife live in Gaithersburg and work in D.C. I guess y'all are just swapping.
