I have a long history with Dayton, since my cousins lived there when I was a kid. Been going to…read morethe USAF museum since the first big buildings opened, and have watched the expansions every decade or so. But there is a lot more to Dayton. Yes, Wright-Patt is central to the city, but Delco, NCR, the universities, and more add to the culture and economy. There's a decent food scene. I discover more hidden gems on every trip. There are several good breweries. The city has had some down times, but is coming back strong. The base helps, and other draws like the amazing Art Institute, Carillon Park, the Packard Museum (in an old dealership) and more. Some pretty impressive parks and trails that I have just barely begun to explore. Not far from Cinci and Columbus, and Miami in Oxford, Dayton is worth the hour or so drive. Spend a day, have some fun, eat something good.

Being a local tourist extends out to one of my favorite destinations, Dayton. Yeah folks, I really…read morejust said Dayton. Now before your brain goes "Air Force Museum, strip clubs and meh food" there are some things I want to share with you about this interesting city. First of all, they have a great craft beer scene here. I can tell you that their brew scene is easily equal to anything that Columbus and Cincinnati is offering up these days. I'm working my way through my bucket list with Carillon Brewing, Toxic Brew, Warped Wing, Eudora Brewing Co. and Dayton Brewing Company all coming to mind. If beer isn't your thing, then I'd recommend The Belle of Dayton Distillery. They make their own rum and vodka and it's a great place to settle in, have a drink and enjoy the local cool spot called The Oregon District. The Oregon District, by the way, is a great urban downtown neighborhood. It's bohemian, trendy, gritty, cosmopolitan and it's a great place to have lunch, dinner and cocktails. It's one of the prime areas to get out of your car and explore all the little shops and boutiques that inhabit the area. Look up some of the reviews and I bet you'll be ready to head over and explore one of the cool spots of this Midwestern city. Now how can we talk about Dayton and not mention Wegerzyn Gardens and The Cox Arboretum? Both are wonderful green spaces that are true gems in this city. For those folks that prefer to get into nature while pedaling over and around, check out the Miami Valley River Trail. With 330 miles of bike trails, it's the largest system in the US. If you're not so much into nature, of course the National Museum Of The United States Air Force is world renowned and visited by people from all over the world. I'm sure some of them also find their way to The Dayton Art Institute, Carillon Historical Park, America's Packard Museum and one of the favorites for the folks with kids and grandkids: The Boonshoft Museum of Discovery. And lastly, for the foodies: Check out Dorothy Lane Markets. There's 3 of them and all are worthy of a visit although the Washington Square location on Far Hills is my favorite by far. Just go there and be impressed. So there you have it. Dayton. I'm having a great time exploring the area and I hope you do too. A solid 4 stars.

I am very safe even in the time we are and if you ask any criminal why- they will tell you it is because the response time of the Huber Heights Police is very quick!

My one complaint is that the events are so popular that you have to watch the website and sign up immediately when something comes up that you are interested in. There is a food box outside the library. Inside, snacks are always available for the young ones. I use the website to request books that aren't available in house and the process is smooth. The checkout and book return is up-to-date and easy to use. The library staff is helpful and friendly. I love the large magazine section. A lot of libraries I have been to in the past have stopped having magazines available. I'm old school and love to hold and read a magazine. There is ample comfortable seating.

I just wanted to give a shout out to the Montgomery County Board of Elections. I went there…read moreSaturday, March 9, 2024, to vote early and it was an awesome experience. They have a parking garage and the sign said to enter from 2nd street. Not sure if it's always that way, but parking was free and the gates were already open. Once I parked, there were clear signs all around on where to vote. From the parking floor, to the floors inside the building, they were all taped well on the floor telling you where to go to vote. When I got to the voting area, there were several attendants that validated your voter identification and directed you with blank ballot to the appropriate voting machine. Checking in to vote was very professional, quick and efficient. I can't recommend this enough for those that don't want to wait until Election Day to vote. There are only a few more days to vote early, so if you prefer this option, I would recommend going soon. Next week they are even open on Sunday. March 11: 7:30 a.m. - 7:30 p.m. March 12: 7:30 a.m. - 8:30 p.m. March 13-15: 7:30 a.m. - 7:30 p.m. March 16: 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. March 17: 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. I appreciate everyone that made it so easy to vote. This is my second time voting here early. I believe the first time, because it was on a weekday, I did have to get a parking stub. However, I believe they did validate my parking stub. For most people, it probably will be farther than your voting day location. However, the convenience more than makes up for it. There's no excuse not to vote with all the options in Ohio! Get out and vote!
