Cleveland!

Monday Tom and I did a quick trip to Cleveland. Tom has been trying to come up with a design on some cages for milk and it just so happens the company he thought could help him is in a town near Cleveland. So we hopped on a flight met with the company and found out it wasn't going to work. A different venue would have to be tried. The trip was not a total bust though because we got to spend time with Megan, Scott and Maddy in their new hometown!
After a visit to the Cleveland Museum of Art we met Megan at her office. The campus is beautiful and is walking distance from the museum. We walked it as the snow (very little) fell on us.

After meeting up with Megan we headed to Maddy's preschool to pick her up. It was fun surprising Maddy and seeing her school. A beautiful preschool with tons of interest for the kids.

We then met up with Scott (sorry no pictures of Scott) for dinner. We had a really nice evening. Scott and Tom did many samplings of the local brew. The next morning we had a breakfast of breads from a neighborhood bread shop and a nice slow morning. Maddy built tents and went camping. I tried not to wake her with the flash while she slept in her tent.

Megan and Maddy had to get to school but we took a side trip to check out their future home. We found you can sure get a lot of home in Cleveland for condo prices in California! I would show you pictures but that is for the Holmes to share!
After we left Maddy and Megan we took a tour of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. An interesting building stuffed with rock and roll paraphernalia. A Grateful Dead Exhibit - note to self, rock and roll is not conducive to longevity of life.  Definitely worth the visiting. It took us 2-1/2 hours to just to get through it all. It could take longer listening to all the recordings.

We then boarded a plane and headed home. A very full 3 days. A thank you to the Holmes for their warm hospitality.
