Stephanie, Ceci and I just returned from our vacation and we had a wonderful time.  This was the first trip to the beach that Steph and I have had since 2007 and Ceci's first trip ever!  She enjoyed the beach, the ocean and the pool, and we were even able to keep the sand eating to a minimum.  We normally don't take vacations in election years, so it might be a while before Ceci gets to go back, but at least we know she enjoys it.

Now that we are in our summer recess, I'm hoping to get out in the district a lot more to talk about what's going on in Columbus.  I plan to schedule town hall meetings throughout the district to tell people what's been going on in Columbus and hear what people are thinking about and talking about in the district.  I plan on scheduling a couple of month, so check back at doddforohio.com to find out the latest locations and dates for upcoming meetings.  Hope to see you there!
