My husband, Bobby, and I had the opportunity to do a little more exploring of downtown Wooster last Friday, January 29, 2016. I'll be writing about that in another post. However, before we embarked, we enjoyed sharing a meal with the Executive Director of the Wayne County Convention and Visitors Bureau, Marty Starkey, at Broken Rocks Cafe. Lunch was very good. Our intention, or maybe I should say Bobby's intention, was to get Marty's advice on my blog. Because it's about visiting … [Read more...]

Whodunit was the theme for the Sherlock Holmes Mystery Weekend in Cambridge, Ohio on November 6-8, 2015.

When Bobby and I agreed to be on the … [Read more...]
Great Times with Great-Nephews
Bobby and I don't have children — unless you count the four-legged kind—but we do have nieces and nephews. Some of those nieces and nephews have children. That makes us great aunt and uncle to a few really great kids. This summer we have been able to enjoy time with two of our great-nephews, De'Aveon and Noah. Earlier this summer, the boys stayed with their great-grandparents in Lodi. That meant we got to see them pretty often during their 17 day visit. On one of those days, Uncle Bobby … [Read more...]
