Eric- Did not make it over. When I finished the 35 minute ride in the 90 degrees humidity wearing a motorcycle helmet I had to re-hydrate and get over to Plain City for their parade.

I'd put population growth right up there as top factors. My favorite part of the parade was the Columbus drum group that came through....Les I didn't see you at BITA, you walk through the alley? I very narrowly escaped going into the dunk tank!!

Les: I think it's a combination of all your points, with the economy as the top reason. We're not making a trip this summer to save some money.

    Dublin history lesson

    Peter and Benjamin Sells came to the area around 1801 from Huntington County, Pa., to buy land. Old Dublin was first platted in 1810 by their brother, John. Surveyor John Shields named the town after his birthplace in Ireland. The town developed the usual assortment of mills, shops and churches, with settlers coexisting peacefully with Wyandot Indians, who camped on Indian Run. The town gained notoriety in the mid-19th century, when a surplus of taverns and rowdy Civil War veterans gave the village a tough reputation. Columbus' growth and the construction of I-270 made expansion inevitable. Dublin achieved city status in 1987.
