Well, Newburgh is a good drive to Indy and now that I have some years on me I don't like to make it a round trip in one day. Ha.. Newburgh is by Evansville and now it is hard to tell the boundry as the two are almost as one. The Ohio River is not known for its' beaches as it floods almost every year. Newburgh is a beautiful spot on the river. Sitting in a restaurant watching a river boat go by is a beautiful sight.

Warren,I to live on the Ohio River but on the southeast corner of the state near the Town of Vevay. The town only has one stop light.It use to be a four way stop but now we have real red,yellow and green lights.Most of us old people still stop even if the light is green. I love to sat at the American Legion and watch the barges go by.

Hey Mike, I know what you mean about small towns. I actually lived near Rockport, Indiana before coming to Newburgh. We had 2 stop lights and we like to tell about the town council wanting to be up to date and putting in a one way street, but they had to do away with it because everyone got outside of town and couldn't get back in. Ha. There was a Noblitt in my class, I think, any kin?

Warren,it's funny you mention one way streets. I'm on the planning and zoning board for Switzerland County and last year we approved a one way street next to the Court House. Well when they installed the signs on main street they had the arrow pointing south and on the next street it was pointing north. It made the headline of our weekly newspaper. I have to sisters who went to Tech.One is Nancy and the other one is Kay.I think you might remember a friend of mine,Tony Boschenko. Mike

That's funny about your one way street. I took my story from an old Herb Schriner joke he use to tell about his little town in Indiana. I don't remember where he was from. I don't remember your sisters first name. I graduated in 1956.
