Dayton, Ohio and The Wright Brothers

The birding trip has ended and we travel south to the Cincinnati area to visit our friends, Paul and Jo Marsh.  The first few days are spent relaxing and taking walks in some of Ohio's wonderful parks.  On Friday, May 31 we drove to Dayton, Ohio to visit the Carillon Historical Park.  Its most noted feature is the Wright Brothers Museum.  But they were also highlighting some of the other contributions the inventors of Dayton made to the world.  Not only the airplane, but the cash register (NCR) and the self-starter for the automobile.  This is the original 1905 Flyer III that was built and flown by the Wright Brothers.
