When we made our reservations for this week, we knew that Site 107 would be occupied on Saturday night so as we were driving in early Sunday afternoon we speculated on the likelihood that last night’s campers might still be here. In fact the site had been vacated but just barely. There was still a bit of a campfire in the ring. Would Smokey the Bear approve?
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.
Given the news coverage of everything out West burned up, Smokey would/should bop them in the back-side with his shovel.
How did you enjoy the night without the quarter hourly alarms?
