Cleveland Rocks!

---

The Glass House Inn in Erie, PA, served us well last night. Felt almost like a B&B with the free breakfast in a room that looked like somebody's Victorian living room.

It was another pilgrimage for us today, this time to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. We were there for over five hours! There is a lot of history here and Joe and I felt like we were walking through memories of our own lives as we saw areas dedicated to so many rock and roll legends that we have loved through the years. There is a DJ and the huge building is filled with music, made me want to dance from exhibit to exhibit. There are so many fun videos to watch and neat stuff to look at that after five hours we still hadn't seen all that we wanted to see. But, we finally were too tired to carry on.

We were also impressed with the city of Cleveland, or at least the downtown and harbor area we were in. It was shiny and clean with lots of green parks and gardens. Tomorrow is the Cleveland Rock and Roll Marathon so they were beginning to block off streets so we had a little trouble getting out of town. Our GPS didn't know about the marathon.

We drove along Lake Erie an hour and tonight we are in a motel right on the shore in Port Clinton. We wanted our last night to be a good one. We had our farewell dinner in a restaurant specializing in fresh Lake Erie Walleye, but when we saw it was all breaded and fried, Joe opted for a smoked turkey sandwich and I got a shrimp salad.

Tomorrow, we'll take our time here before heading to Detroit, our flight doesn't leave until 8:30 PM. Not sure what we'll do all day, but will find something. Any place we've never been to before is interesting to us.

Still only fraction of what is at Graceland.

I'd heard great things about the Museum; your photos make me want to see it! That's too bad about the Walleye- my grandparents brought back fresh walleye pike every year, and it was heresy to fix it any other way but lightly floured and pan fried, with lemon slices ;-)

Walleye
Yes, we almost went to another restaurant to try to find fish that wasn't deep fat fried. We've had a lot of fish on this trip, so shouldn't complain.

Really enjoyed your trip!
Judy.... I've been loving your trip and seeing your great pictures. Thanks for sharing it all the way you did. It looks like a really good time. I would have loved seeing all that you and Joe saw!

Thanks.
We saw and did a lot, nothing was a repeat for either of us.

I like how they include the cod piece in the Stone's outfits.

Judy and Joe: Thank you for sharing your adventure with us. We really like your writing style Judy and your pictures are excellent--all of them. Your experiences surfaced memories of some of own and a whole lot more to boot. Now, we are going to miss the blogs a bunch. B&C
