We had a party over the fourth of July. It was well attended by family. Everyone had a good day “down on the farm”. We all had to walk around the mud…well all of us except the little ones who delighted in it.
Connie and I spent the last couple of days in Cleveland. We vacationed there 😮 We took in the Titanic exhibit at the Science Center on Wednesday. Thursday morning found us at the Museum of Natural History. Then, in the evening we went to the State Theater and saw “The Lion King”.
This is something way out of character for me. The weatherman said more rain and HOT…so we went and had a great time. We were in air conditioning most everywhere we went. We saw many interesting things. The Lion King was our first ever play … and it was AWESOME!
I have plenty to do here, but the short break did us good. We rested and did things that were “outside of our box”. The city was easy to get around in, thanks in part to GPS, but we were never lost. All of the folks we met were kind and helpful. It was a good time.
This morning on our return trip we went to the West Side Market. What a neat place. It was full of vendors selling all sorts of food items. The produce, meats and cheeses were fresh and abundant. Seeing all the produce made me homesick. The place was clean and neat. The people we met there were helpful and not pushy. I will most assuredly go again some day.
Ok… vacation behind us… and all the “Play”ing around done… it’s back to work. The weather looks promising for what I have on my list. I’ll let you know how it goes 😮

Vacation, not a “Stay’cation” really?!?! You can sometimes teach an “old” dog new tricks 🙂 I was excited to read that you saw The Lion King, I’ve heard it is a great show.
