Day 8- September 22
After a 6 hour drive (UGH!), much of it in heavy rain we have arrived at a campground about 45 min outside of downtown Cleveland. Still raining and the forecast for the week not good (a lot of rain). Well we’re glad we’re not camping in a tent, and we’ll just make the best of it for the week, rain won’t stop us, the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame is inside right? 😊
Day 9 – September 23

Spending the day in Downtown Cleveland..4th Street, Great Lakes Brewery, West Side Market, etc. Outside stuff today, indoor stuff Weds & Thurs (Rock and Roll HOF, Museums,etc)
