I met The Music Man as a child on cable TV and HBO. I watched the movie over and over fully enamoured by Robert Preston's portrayal of Professor Harold Hill. I memorized the songs and my sister, Randi, memorized the choreography. We discovered that our dad had the vinyl album of the original soundtrack from the movie and we listened to it frequently (even recording it on a cassette tape). Over the years I have met The Music Man in various settings from high school auditoriums to college … [Read more...]
Kozmo’s Grille: In My Mind I’m Already There
Before I moved to Wooster I never gave much thought to Massillon, Ohio. But over the years it has started to become a destination spot for me. I've enjoyed movies at the Regal Theater and at the Lion's Lincoln Theater. You can read about our time watching White Christmas or Prince Bride at the Lion's theater in earlier posts.

Take a Trip Down to MacKenzie River Pizza
The first time I went into MacKenzie River Pizza Grill & Pub I knew that I would have to bring my husband, Bobby, back to try it. There was just something about the place and the fact that though they originated from Montana, it was their pizza they were known for, so it was a no brainer that I would be back with my pizza-loving husband. That was almost one year ago, but I finally accomplished this during a recent trip to Columbus. Friends of ours, Ron and Jan Maxwell, had invited us … [Read more...]
Take Note: Ted’s Bulletin a Great Place to Eat in the DMV
My husband, Bobby, and I recently attended the FinCon Expo in Washington, D.C., where Bobby wanted to learn more about blogging, digital marketing, and scaling an online business. I was there to learn more about launching a podcast. We hit a few nice places to eat while in D.C., and when Bobby learned that my aunt and uncle who live in Greencastle, Pa., were going to drive into the nation's capital to pick us up (instead of at a train station in Maryland), he really wanted to treat them to a … [Read more...]
