Surprise Visit
We were supposed to make an appearance at a family reunion this afternoon. We were told the meeting place was near Colerain, but it ended up being somewhere near Millville. After nearly driving into Indiana to find the house (unsuccessfully), we decided to take a detour to our old stomping grounds in Oxford instead. This was serendipitous, as we enjoyed Bagel & Deli and Skipper's criss-cut fries while watching both the Bengals and Browns games on plasma TVs in good ol' uptown. It'd been a year since we were up there, even though we're only an hour away. Those college kids keep getting younger.
Here's one of many MU signs, an uptown bookstore, my house from senior year and Cal's house, formerly called "Stop Inn" (many Oxford houses are named).

Oh Mother Miami, the Red Brick Miasma we called home for four years (minus one semester). So long ago, but yesterday as well. Strange that there was no plasma when we knew the Miasma.
Full disclosure: I was on the phone with Gordon Gecko and he said there might be a post on TC soon...

A walk down Memory Lane! What a beautiful place Miami is! It must have been nice to go back for a visit. I,too,will forever hold special memories of my boys going to school there. How blessed to have our own Miami Merger also! You sort of had your own reunion!

Yep, but it was after we were out of school, so I don't know if that reinforces the mythology.
