This house at Spiegel Grove was home for a hundred years to five generations of the Hayes family. Built by his uncle in the 1860’s, Rutherford B. Hayes and his wife Lucy enlarged it considerably in the years following his presidency. Visiting his home and adjacent museum gave us a feel for the man, his background, his family, and his times. It makes it so much easier to remember where he comes in the succession of presidents and his importance in American history!
Thanks to the organizational skills of Mandy & Kgreat weekend of endrick, the amazing support of their team, and the sponsorship of nüCamp RV we enjoyed a great weekend of camaraderie and fun at the Northeast Rally. Gathering with fellow teardrop aficionados is always an enriching experience and this gathering in the Adirondacks was no exception.
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.
