Hurley attended a portion of the service on his way through Sandusky and talked to church members about the 154-year-old church just off of Washington Street, also US 6, in Sandusky. The Erie County Courthouse is reflected in the door to the left of Hurley.

Just outside Sandusky to halfway to Fremont

A tricky day again. It's hard to calculate milage in cities. But I did stop
in at the 2nd Baptist Church in Sandusky. Church has a great history and some very friendly people.

People told me I wouln't find much between Sandusky and Fremont. NOT TRUE! There are a number of nice farms along the way and people came out to greet me. Some of them waited quite a while because I was very late. They offered me food and drink. That's not nothin'. That's good ol' country hospitality.

Tuesday, I'll pass the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center in Fremont. Hope I have time to stop in. Might be interesting.

Spent Monday updating the friends list. Take a look at it once it's published online [midweek?]. I'm about halfway caught up. Ok, maybe 40 percent caught up. But I'm getting there. It's important to me to recognize the people who have helped. If your name should be there and it isn't (by mid-June) please let me know.....
