Today it is Lyle's turn to Blog:
Todd & Judith rented a car from the airport to explore the region beyond our immediate hotel. Most of us gathered in the lobby and walked to a colorful eclectic eatery called Macado's, which specializes in subs with cutsey names. On the way back Curt & I detoured for a brief visit to Roanoke's Fire Station #1, not much changed from its opening in 1906 (and beautifully maintained), except now there are modern fire engines and the grooved floor (for the traction of the horses) is not so necessary.


This is just a little excerpt I found on the internet about a family visiting Roanoke and commenting on Fire Station #1. It really is interesting if you pay attention to how many visitors this Historic Fire Station gets.
