George,
Would it be possible to get Bob to scan and post his picture or would he 
sell a copy to me.  As a former Twinsburg resident (for 24 of my 38 years) 
I'd love to see some 3D of the town square and the now famous Twins Day 
celebration.  I remember when they didn't have a Twins day!

And, if you ever make it to Twinsburg heading south from Solon on Rt 91, 
Keep your eyes open for Sherwin Drive, just past the Corbett Dairy farm 
(on your right).  Turn right and we WERE the 7th house on the left (2418). 
 Don't live there now though I did hear they paved the driveway and built 
a garage where my dad's storage shed used to be.

I remember that we could, after a good snow, sled ride down the back hill, 
down the driveway into the street and down the street to the bottom 
circle.  But I digress... and I'd love to see some 3D of the area.

Ron
