Welcome. I use to know some serious collectors up your way when I lived in Louisville.

Indianapolis! I have a fountain pen pal there who just moved out of the city to escape to the countryside.

When I think of Indianapolis, my brain shifts to a century ago when it was the center of electric interurban railway travel, the same era as my favorite fountain pens.

Oh, that's another hobby of mine.

Many years ago road paving crews downtown unearthed the old railway lines. It's a shame Indianapolis went backwards in that respect. However, recently they've been putting in bus stops that resemble train platforms and the busses even drive down the middle of the road in special lanes.

Thanks to all the warm welcomes. Does anyone know if the 2021 Ohio Pen Show is on or has it been cancelled again?

According to Terry, it's on notwithstanding the website still stuck on 2020.
