Ohio Trip

What a great time we had in Ohio visiting with Mark's side of the family! On our trip there, we stopped at several rest areas to stretch our legs. Six hours doesn't seem like very long to travel anymore! Our first stop was Dennis and Adele's home. They were very hospitable to us and opened their house to us graciously. The next morning, we worshiped with them at White Oak Christian church. We said our goodbyes, and began traveling to Mark's mom's house. Once in Xenia, we settled into Doris' house, and spent the evening visiting with family. Some of us were able to traverse down to Hillsboro to attend Family Camp, and were blessed by good messages, singing, visiting with old friends, and more family. The next day, we stopped in for a visit with Mamaw Skaggs. We love hearing the stories she tells about her childhood! After dinner, (lunch for you city folk) we were able to tour the Wright-Patterson Air Force Museum! What a great history lesson! We saw some of the first airplanes, their advancements, and modern day fighter jets. What changes that took place over the years! It was quite a neat place to visit!We had to leave to get back to Providence Prairie, but all in all, we had a wonderful time in Ohio!
