My wife, Wendi, and I recently went to The Australian Pink Floyd Show at the Goodyear Theater in Akron, Ohio. The band and the light show were absolutely amazing. Below, you can get a taste of the concert. Until the next full blog post here on Wendi's Weekend Trips & Whatnot, enjoy a little bit of the concert. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCtDQDs7pAg … [Read more...]
Wendi and the Chocolate Factory
A recent trip to North Canton allowed my husband, Bobby and I a tour of Harry London's Chocolate Factory. I didn't even need a golden ticket! In fact, anyone can tour the factory if you visit it on a weekday. The tours begin at 10 a.m. and are every hour until 4 p.m. When we arrived, we were given the opportunity to enjoy one of Harry London's signature chocolates, the Buckeye. We were about 20 minutes early for the next tour at 1 p.m., so we perused the retail store. There we were given … [Read more...]

In fact, he made me promise to not plan anything on Saturday. Sunday was spent with our nephews, who were visiting in Lodi. We had a great time and that will be shared in another blog…stay tuned! By Monday, Bobby was open to the idea of doing something, … [Read more...]
Hamburgers Galore … and More
I love burgers. Where Bobby could eat pizza seven days a week, I could eat burgers. I'm famous in my family for the way I construct my burgers. In fact, as a child I was usually the last one to get done eating when we had burgers. It took me that long to get everything just right. A burger had to have salad dressing (think generic Miracle Whip), ketchup, mustard, tomatoes and pickles. I hate onions, so there was no place on my burger for them; they just ruin them. (Don't hate me onion … [Read more...]
