Welcome to the neighborhood! My husband and I just moved to Cairo in late October and we love it here! Be happy to answer your questions if you have anything specific.

I have periodically visited the area for over thirty years. My first mistake upon arriving in the area was pronouncing the town name improperly. The locals call the town KAY-row which is quite different from the Egyptian city. Many years ago all of the phone lines for the area used to run through the North Bend park lodge making it the nerve center of the vicinity. The area had been known for an ecosystem that contained an abundance of natural (wild growing) foods and a good place for square dances.

Hi Larry...you are correct we pronounce the name of the town KAY-row.

So, what do you do when you visit here?

I visit the park and kill time. If I feel real energetic I will go over to Marietta and stroll around. I return to the area every couple of years.
