My Town Monday: September Days
This week we’ll revisit a couple of things in my town.The beauty of this late summer’s afternoon has been calling my name. The infinite azure sky that September brings to Northeast Ohio, warm temperatures and gentle breezes are welcome. We are still cleaning up from the storm that Ike brought us last week. Our beautiful old maple, as old as this old house, succumbed. More on that in another post.
The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railway is a wonderful way to explore this beautiful Valley. Join me as we take a ride:
I’ve talked about the special place that is my town, and the feeling that is unlike that in any other place I’ve been. It manifests in many ways, and the Peninsula Python Festival was one.
Post a guess who this PPP member is in the comment section and I’ll enter your name in a high tech drawing (where I draw a name from a hat). You could be the latest member of the PPP. You could win cool stuff and join the other intrepid Posse members, Terrie Farley Moran, Sam, Travis, Barrie, and Eryl.

I don’t know who it is but is he holding a Little Blue Santa?

Of course! Little Blue Santa is a PPP member! Is that the mayor holding him?

If he had longer hair and no glasses, he’d look remarkably like me in my recently posted wedding photo…

Makes me miss going to dh’s family farm up in Mantua. Nothing like fall in NE Ohio.

LBS is a PPP member, but it’s not the mayor, Laura.
Kim–You are one of a kind
Mantua isn’t too far from us, Cathy. Let me know if you’re coming up for a visit.

My, that looks like Travis Erwin. Imagine finding him here.
The video was a beautiful accompaniment with my morning coffee.

I think it is Travis, but I could be wrong.
Wonderful post, btw.

Oh, I enjoyed that video, very pretty there. I suspect that is Travis with the LBS.

Look at the ears on that sucker!
But then again he just might make a fine mayor.

Do you mean the ears of the LBS, Travis?
Travis Erwin said,
September 23, 2008 @ 2:11 pm
No, I mean the ears on that big hairy fellow.

Beautiful film of a beautiful place. And, hey, Travis would probably make a great mayor!
