Escaping from Ohio

[debgeisler]

Chatting with my sister Libby this afternoon, I heard reason #4,163 why I'm glad to have escaped Ohio 23 years ago: In one week in Elyria, Ohio, they've had 70 degree weather, 20 degree weather, an earthquake, and a tornado.

That's a lot of weather for anybody.

Why people from the plains moved back to northern Ohio: "Well, we liked the temperature fluctuations and the tornadoes...but Kansas just wasn't tectonically unstable enough for us."

I only spent two years in Ohio. In July of 1980, we had an earthquake and a tornado in the same week.

Having spent this past weekend at Millenicon, I understand. I described Ohio as "just like Buffalo, but without the good restaurants."
