akron is my hometown....well i'm originally from clinton iowa hell, but akron is my hometown! :) kent holds a fond place in my heart too....but if you weren't aware i am OBSESSED with the goodyear blimp....it MUST be the goodyear blimp!!! i truly don't know or quite understand why---but us goodyear blimp groupies are legion....there is something truly magical about it for some of us and when you hear it approaching or see it in the distance it just evokes happiness and excitement like a little kid seeing santa arriving on his sleigh....don't ever be around me when i hear or see the blimp in the distance cuz i automatically yell out "BLIMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and if i'm driving, off i go in that direction....
this is at least a goodyear aircraft 'blimp' ad from 1945....

AND since i'm on a blimp roll here....back in july one of my pix on their FB page was selected for fan photo friday---the whole neighborhood heard me when i saw that! :) i snared this one by pulling over on the side of the highway as the blimp circled the goodyear plant....yes, pulling over on the side of the highway...and you know what? i wasn't the ONLY one!!!
