Daytrippers,
We responded by email to Betty & Steve about their previous posting, and they replied with more great comments about the DTC experience.

I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW I FOUND YOUR WEBSITE, I THINK I WAS ON A WEBSITE THAT LISTED THINGS TO DO IN CINCINNATI. HOWEVER, I AM DELIGHTED I DID!!! IT IS AT THE TOP OF "MY FAVORITES" LIST FOR SURE.

WORDS CAN NOT BEGIN TO DESCRIBE WHAT THESE DRIVES DO FOR US. WE SEE THEM AS MENTAL ADJUSTMENTS-A WAY TO ESCAPE OUR EVERYDAY LIVES AND GET "LOST" FOR AWHILE. ON OUR TRIPS WE HAVE CONVERSATIONS THEY WE JUST CAN'T SEEM TO FIT INTO OUR EVERYDAY LIVES. WE HAVE MADE IMPORTANT DECISIONS WHILE "DAY TRIPPING". IT IS SO MUCH EASIER TO TALK AND THINK WITHOUT ALL THE DISTRACTIONS OF HOME. WE HAVE ALSO JUST SAT IN SILENCE, BOTH OF US GETTING LOST IN THE SCENERY. I TRULY FEEL THAT DAY TRIPPING HAS BROUGHT MY HUSBAND AND I CLOSER TOGETHER. ON JUNE 23RD WE WILL BE CELEBRATING OUR 4TH ANNIVERSARY. WE ARE ALREADY PLANNING TO SKIP WORK AND GO ON A DAYTRIP, HOW ROMANTIC!!

MY HUSBAND AND I DO NOT HAVE A "FUN CAR" JUST THE FAMILY CARS-MAZDA 626 AND PLYMOUTH BREEZE. WE HEAD OUT EARLY ON OUR DAYTRIPS WITH SNACKS AND SOMETIMES A PICNIC LUNCH IN HAND. WE HAVE ALWAYS FOUND A ROADSIDE PARK OR PULL OFF TO STOP AT OR A QUAINT LITTLE RESTAURANT.

WE ESPECIALLY LOVE THE COVERED BRIDGE DAYTRIPS. MY HUSBAND IS A HISTORY BUFF AND JUST LOVES TO GET OUT AND EXPLORE THE BRIDGE. ON ONE OF OUR TRIPS WE FOUND A GEOCACHING LOCATION IN ONE OF THE COVERED BRIDGES. AT THE TIME WE WERE NOT FAMILIAR WITH GEOCACHING. IN THE CAPSULE WE FOUND, WE LEFT A NOTE CONCERNING DAY TRIPPING AND TOOK A SMALL OLD TOY AIRPLANE (OLD AIRPLANES ARE ANOTHER INTEREST OF MY HUSBANDS) AS OUR MEMENTO. IT IS NOW HANGING FROM THE REAR VIEW MIRROR AND IS A CONSTANT REMINDER OF OUR "SPECIAL DAYTRIP". YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU WILL SEE OR FIND DAY TRIPPING. IT IS ALWAYS AN ADVENTURE!!

PLEASE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!! I HOPE MORE PEOPLE LEARN ABOUT DAYTRIPCINCINNATI.COM. AND DISCOVER WHAT THEY TOO HAVE BEEN MISSING OUT ON!!! MAYBE YOU COULD HAVE THE LOCAL NEWSPAPERS RUN AN ARTICLE OR EVEN LOCAL TV AND RADIO STATION DO A SPECIAL ABOUT YOUR WORK. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO POST MY EMAIL TO YOUR WEBSITE, I AM PROUD TO SAY THAT WE ARE "DAYTRIPPERS"!!!!
