We’ll, actually Steve didn’t celebrate with candles on his cake this year. His birthday treat was dinner with friends at Los Amigos Mexican Restaurant including a dessert of Sopaipillas topped with cinnamon, honey, whipped cream and a hint of chocolate. And that’s after several hours of sorting through a couple hundred black and white photos depicting his childhood. A fun day!
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.
What a beautiful day!!!
With love and blessings, Susan ☘️
