No Black & White Wednesday today as will post a mural from the recent Richmond walkabout.
The Wright family lived in Richmond, Indiana between 1881 and 1884.
While there, Orville took up kite-building and Wilbur purchased a used high wheel ordinary bicycle and learned to ride it.
Wilbur finished four years of high school, but the family moved from Richmond, Indiana, to Dayton, Ohio, before he could receive his diploma.
Orville dropped out of high school before his senior year.
