[SOC] Ya'll going to Dayton ? ?

[Joe Fischer]

As a long-time resident of Ohio, home to Dayton and Hamvention, I would like to extend a warm welcome to you KL7s and invite you to experience all the wonders of the Midwest.  While we don’t have salmon jumping in our streams or moose (meese?) roaming our streets, it does sometimes get colder here than in Alaska.  You might even find our dialect understandable, so come on down.  Sorry, no snow so leave the Huskies home.  Better hurry, Hamvention starts in 6 days.
