Wednesday evening we stopped in Canton (Ohio) to visit the Football Hall of Fame in the evening. Yesterday morning, our first stop was in Cleveland for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. That stop was a highlight.
The building was well designed with many levels, videos, film clips and private alcoves. It sits on the edge of Lake Erie adjacent to a Science Museum and the Stadium for the Cleveland Browns. Music plays continuously which creates an energetic atmosphere. Many exhibits were interactive. In addition, there were several "costume" collections worn by performers including Elvis Presley, Mick Jagger, John Lennon, Stevie Nicks, Michael Jackson, etc. It is a good thing I'll never go on stage; I can't imagine appearing in public in any of those outfits.
After leaving, the rest of the day was spent traveling from Cleveland to Milwaukee. The day was overcast, gray and mostly rainy. Things slowed down passing through Chicago because of the volume of traffic. Road construction along the way brought back the old saw about two seasons in the Midwest. Winter and road construction.
We are stopping in Milwaukee to visit our niece, Anna. She and the other freshman attending Marquette moved into the dorm on Wednesday. We will see her after checking out and then continue our trip. Next stop is (Hastings,) Minnesota and the home of Jeff's sister, Jeanine and husband, Al. We will visit family and friends before our trek continues again.
Martha & Jeff!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're journey out west is full of adventure and I love that your first stop was just outside my hometown of Hartville, Ohio. In fact I was born in North Canton just a few miles from the Football Hall of Fame. :)
Well, I certainly miss Martha around TFC. I even walked by her old office expecting to see her the other day and remembered again that you all are off on your new adventure. I hope to stay in touch. The blog is great. Safe travels.
God bless,
