A Great Day for Swing Dance on the Suncoast! The Jive Aces return and are joined by Swing Dance fans from all over the Florida Gulf Coast including the reigning matriarch of Swing, Norma Miller. It was an incredible evening of excellent music with an incredible swing band. Some intrepid dancers including CJ, Annie, and Ed stayed extra late and joined the boys in the band for milk shakes at Steak and Shake.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
