summer is going too fast . . .

Summer.  Family.  Friends.  Boating.  Sailing.  Fire trucks. Grilling.  Hiking.  Beach time.  Swimming.  Solar Eclipse.

medina, ohio

15 minutes from the center of my hometown is where our family's house was located.  The town square was the center of town, the place that is still so familiar today.  The courthouse being tidied up for the 200th anniversary next year.  The old firehouse that is now a museum but looks like a fire truck could come screaming out at any minute.  The fountain that I used to climb all over while attending concerts at the gazebo in the middle of the town square.  The old Farmer's Exchange that just standing outside conjures up the smell of fertilizer in my mind.  And my house that looks different but underneath has the same basic shell.

I caught up with the familiar sights of Medina.  And caught up with classmates at our 25th reunion.  Medina you are a good place to have grown up in.
