Wendi's Weekend Trips & Whatnot

Travel. Food. Fun.

Great Ice Cream from A to Z’s

By

I lived in Medina County growing up. I moved back to the area, well close enough, by moving to Wayne County several years ago. However, I have never gone through Hinckley, Ohio at least not to my knowledge. That is until last Saturday, January 28, 2017. My husband, Bobby and I traveled to Walton Hills to Bedford Reservation with our dog, Owney. Both Bobby and Owney wrote about our adventures there, but I get the chance to write about our visit to Z's Cream and Bean. After a chance to walk … [Read more...]

Locked in on Fun: Escape Room Wooster 

By

Imagine you willingly lock yourself in a room with nine of your friends and you have 45 minutes to figure out a mystery to get out. That is how I spent Saturday night, November 5, 2016. My husband, Bobby, and I helped celebrate our good friend, Jan Maxwell's birthday. Her husband Ron arranged for us to enjoy the experience at Unlocked: Escape Room Wooster. So I am obviously not going to give anything away in this post about what happens when you attend an event. But I will say it isn't as … [Read more...]

Cowhaus Creamery — Now Downtown Wooster has Artisan Ice Cream

By

Bobby, my husband, and I took a trip to Oberlin this past spring to try Cowhaus Creamery. (You can read about that trip here.)We did so because we had heard the owners, Joe  Bomback and Debby Krejsa, were opening a location in downtown Wooster, Ohio. Unfortunately, they didn't open as quickly as anyone hoped -- them or us. But don't worry, they are open now! Bobby and I had the chance to try them out in their opening day, Friday, September 30th. Before we even stepped inside the … [Read more...]

End of Summer Reflections 

By

Today, September 6, might be considered the unofficial end of Summer 2016 -- or beginning of Fall depending on if you think of Labor day as the end of Summer. Phew! I don't know about you, but for me and my husband, Bobby, it has been a whirlwind of a season. I thought I might reflect on things a little, partly because I am tired from the weekend, but mostly because I had such a great summer, I kind of want to re-live it. The Beginning of Summer in May -- It started out quiet enough with … [Read more...]

Wonderful Discovery on ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ (Akron, actually)

By

Not too long ago, I saw an ad for a Brit Floyd concert in Cleveland. I had never heard of Brit Floyd, but I figured it was a Pink Floyd Tribute band. I love live music, and I like Pink Floyd, so I put out a call on Facebook to see if any of my friends might want to go the show and feel that warm thrill of confusion, that space cadet glow. I had no takers, so I didn't go. Little did I know then I would go to an Australian Pink Floyd Show concert in Akron. While I never heard of Brit Floyd, … [Read more...]
