Traveling can lead to miserable kids when they are off schedule, out of their routine, have nowhere to play, and nothing kid-friendly to eat. Large, busy airports just add to this misery for kids and parents. If you live in NE Ohio or plan a trip to our part of the country, save yourself from [...]
Funny Ohio History Video
February 28, 2011 By
Woot! made a nice “This day in history video” and went into detail about Ohio. Tongue in cheek as it may be, It’s pretty entertaining. Woot! is one of those “one deal, one day” kind of websites. I can’t remember much myself from my Ohio History class from when I was growing up. 88 counties, [...]

We headed out to Medina’s far east side again near the corner of Route 18 and I-71 for my nephew’s Birthday party today. All the kids had a great time. As this is not my first trip to Amazone, I’ve learned what to expect from their employees and all about the employee training process setup [...]
The continuing saga of the Highland Square Grocery Store (or lack there of)
February 12, 2011 By
As much fun as the retail move by Walmart from Fairlawn to Copley is, I’ve had my eye on a different retail saga that has been going on for quite a while in Akron. I’m talking about the need and desire for a grocery store to be located at the cross hairs of the map [...]

The Amish Heartland Tour was a pleasant surprise and very informative. My family and I took the Back Roads Tour where we were up close to the Amish community.

Shark Attacks are down as people stay closer to home for vacations
January 30, 2011 By
One good thing about our poor economy is that the number of shark attacks in the United States has dropped dramatically! In 2007, there were 50 shark attacks, 41 in 2008, and just 28 in 2009. With fewer people headed to the beach for vacations, there are less people taking risks in the ocean. According [...]
