  1. Great photos.
    Ohio 1, Michigan 0 with not quite a DMZ.
    The photo after the Lakewood sign is most certainly not a Lakewood woman but perhaps worth checking carefully.

    1. There was a city run fish cleaning station with running water and waste disposal

  4. I wonder how bad the fish cleaning got that it warranted a sign!
    I could live in that house, lighthouse, way out in the water; keeps the neighbors away, but maybe the runners could jog out for a spell.

    1. I think it is a coast guard station, we couldn't get close to it.

  5. Why are fish not allowed to clean? I am sure that their underwater houses and apartments get messy from time to time.

    Cleveland has a special place in my heart because I spent two beautiful summers there in the mid-seventies working as a camp counsellor in the city's outer suburbs - not far from Chagrin Falls.

    1. We have been to Chagrin Falls, J, grew up in Solon. I spent a week one summer in Pateley Bridge in Yorkshire, we should go back there.

  6. When I worked in Chicago, I took several tours on Lake Michigan while I was there. The massive size of the lakes is always what strikes me whenever I'm near one of the great lakes.

    1. I did one onto the Lake in Chicago, and I have done the river tour a couple of times.

  7. I GOT IN ! It turns out it was my own fault. I disallowed something call cross tracking. I turned it off.
    I love the photos; I miss seeing the Great Lakes; it cheers me to see them.

  8. Lots of familiar sites...love the Lake Erie waterfront. Looking out over the water, it makes one feel so small.
