Valravn VIP Media Event at Cedar Point Stirs Memories

May 5, 2016 By Wendi Warren

There are a whole lot of reasons why I wanted to start a blog. What is surprising to me are the benefits of having a blog. One most recent benefit was being able to attend the VIP Valravn Media Day to ride the new coaster Valravn at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio on May 5, 2016. Driving into the parking lot brought back tons of memories of Cedar Point when I was a kid. I never enjoyed the rides that spin around and around, but get me near a roller coaster and I can barely contain my … [Read more...]

Steak ‘n Shake Raises Stakes in Burger Game

May 4, 2016 By Bobby Warren

It seems I have always been generally aware of Steak 'n Shake, and I know a lot of people who like the restaurant. The couple of times I ate there, I was never really impressed. It was years ago before chefs raised the level of burgers to an art form. However, a friend of mine, Frank Yost, loves the place and posts photos on Facebook whenever he eats there or stops in for a happy hour milkshake. With that in mind, I asked Wendi if she wanted to stop there for lunch on our way to Columbus. We … [Read more...]

Over the Rhine Came to Town, and We Had Church

April 24, 2016 By Bobby Warren

What more can be said? Over the  Rhine came to Wooster, and we had church. Over the Rhine started as a four-member, alternative, indie music group in Cincinnati, and over the past 25 years it has become the husband-and wife duo of Linford Detweiler and Karin Berquist and whoever is touring with them. When they played Wooster United Methodist Church April 20, it was Bradley Meinerding making OtR a trio. This was the first time OtR has been back here since playing The College of Wooster … [Read more...]

Tasty and Toasty at the Courtyard Cafe in Brecksville

April 20, 2016 By Bobby Warren

Wendi decided it would be good to head up to Brandywine Falls in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. While we were in the area, we also wanted to find a nice little restaurant we could not frequent in Wooster. The Courtyard Cafe in nearby Brecksville received a lot of positive reviews on Yelp, so we entered the address into the GPS. We made our day trip on the first good day of spring, so Wendi wanted to eat our lunch in the courtyard. I figured since we were we were at the Courtyard Cafe, … [Read more...]
