I called the editor of the Wapokeneta newspaper when we got to our whistle-stop location downtown and said we had just: &#8220;landed.&#8221;  Clever, huh?  Then it was further south to Piqua, Ohio where I talked with retired teacher Larry Hamilton, who taught Social Studies and African American studies.
