We spent the long weekend in Cleveland with my parents, and almost every time that we go up to Cleveland, we visit the West Side Market – one of our favorite places in Cleveland.
The market is only open on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. On Saturdays, the market is loud and crowded, and that is [...]

I have never appreciated Columbus more than after visiting Washington D.C. for a week. I love visiting big cities, but I’m sure that I don’t want to live in one. For one, the traffic in Washington is awful – a normally 15 minute car trip can take over an hour in rush hour. On the [...]

The Akron Zoo is a beautiful zoo. It is smaller than the Columbus or Cleveland zoo, which made it much more manageable with toddlers. We were able to see the entire zoo in a morning.
Our [...]
