It was an easy drive on Monday to our KOA campground in Streetsboro, OH, which is between Cleveland and Akron. On Tuesday we checked out nearby Cuyahoga National Park. It has lots of trails, but it was so hot that we mostly did a driving tour, except a couple short hikes to some waterfalls. We enjoyed our late lunch at Dave’s Cosmic Subs.
Wednesday was a busy day. We left “home” around 8:30am and headed to Cleveland. We parked at City Square, midway between the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Progressive Field, the Cleveland Guardians baseball stadium. We got to the Hall of Fame about 10 minutes before it opened at 10a, and there were already a good 200 people in line to get in. The museum was very interesting, although crowded right from the start, and cacophonous with music playing at many exhibits and people talking. Our favorites were the exhibits with play lists that exemplified music genres or lists from or particular cities or regions. I liked the Paul McCartney and Wings exhibit on the 6th floor, although I wasn’t a huge fan when they were popular.
When finished, we took an Uber to see the Guardians play the NY Yankees. We haven’t been to a baseball game in ages, and the last couple were minor league games. Built it was fun, and the stadium food actually wasn’t bad! Alas, the Guardians were outclassed by the Yankees. By the end of the 7th inning, the Yankees were ahead 8-3, and we left before the major crowds.
On our way back to the RV we stopped at Staples for an Amazon pickup, Walmart for a sewer hose connector, and Lowe’s for some mouse traps (one or more helped themselves to some bread in a drawer) and male and female garden hose caps. It was a long day, but a good one.
Today, Thursday, we did some house cleaning and a little food shopping. Tonight we’re going to a drive-in theater to see Disclosure Day. I’m not sure the last time I saw any movie in a theater, let alone at a drive-in.
