A River Runs By It

It runs 981 miles, borders on six states and its drainage basin includes parts of 14 states. The sixth oldest river in North America, it has the third greatest discharge volume in the United States and that makes it the largest by volume tributary of the Mississippi. The name comes from the Seneca word Ohi-yo which means Great River. The Ohio River was one of the major arteries to early exploration of America as settlers moved west. Today passes by a lot of cities and towns including the small community of Delhi, the home of Fernbank Park which is the host of the Rollin' On the River show which always brings in a good selection of vehicles. Among the cars on display was a 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Ville convertible, a Ford Model T hot rod, a beautiful Packard, a Pontiac Firebird, a Chevy Impala, a pre-War Ford alongside a pre-War Dodge, a pair of Ford based street rods, and a Ford pick up truck.
