May 11 Thursday
We are moving onward, departing Kentucky to continue north.  Larry and Karen remain in the horse country.  Karen is a huge fan and wants more of the beautiful area.

Tim and I visited the Dayton Aviation Heritage at the Orville & Wilbur Wright Brother’s Cycle Company bike shop (one bike shop saved, out of four, in town) on South Williams Street in Dayton, Ohio.

INVENTORS - IN A GARAGE: The tools exhibit inside the Wright Brothers Bicycle Shop.  They gained an understanding of balance which helped them to solve the problem of human flight.
