The party in the days before the party involves guests helping with the prep work. Today we began with Breakfast Pizza and a review of the To Do List. Then a trip to town to glory in Farmers Market, acquire local craft beer, locally baked soft pretzels, fresh salmon, turkey breast, and more. Now we are ally busily making veggie burgers, sausage patties, turkey burgers,etc. and smoking brisket and turkey. This evening more folks arrive and the party cranks up a notch.
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.
