Friday 7/31: Cleveland

Arrived at Cleveland after spending Thursday night at Vermillion. Ironically I had just copied some of my dad's slides including pictures of a trip to Vermillon in 1955! I'm sure some of the houses along the waterway are still there. Cedar point was very visible on our way out of Sandusky. One of our other "jobs done" was the addition of "Yesterday's Dream" to each side of the flybridge. With the transom covered by the dingy we really needed some way to have the boat identifiable. We'll spend up to a week here - finishing up some canvas for the flybridge, gathering materials to finish the 'ceiling' above my head now that we believe we have the leaks fixed :-) A celebration of Mom's 87th birthday is planned in Ashland Sunday and a fishing expedition with Uncle Leo and Uncle Ron is on the calendar for Tuesday - weather permitting. Breakfast at Shay's was of course the first thing this morning - a quick 15 minute bike ride away. To be continued when we leave at the end of next week .... on to the Erie Canal!
