Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland , Ohio. On our way from Lake Erie State Park to Dublin Ohio we stopped for a break and distraction at the Hall of Fame. I really enjoyed the Beatles Let it Be exhibit and the Dock Clark video compilation. Dan was in his element, for sure.

Big day. Niagara Falls – I never thought I would do the Maid of the Mist or the Cave of the Winds but we jumped in with both feet and saw everything there was to see. What a thrill. Felt like a child at Disneyland. Afterwards we traveled to Lake Erie State Park to camp…
