AKRON OHIO. CUYAHOGA VALLEY TRAIN RIDE

In Akron Ohio with sister Nancy and Brother in law Raymond Cox. Got to ride the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic train which runs between Independence and Akron. 4 different stops. You can get on and off all day. 3 hr total round trip ride. Beautiful and relaxing.

Final Stop -ATLANTA

I have made it around this country and I've stopped in Atlanta Georgia where my sister Sue and brother-in-law Ramon live. I have been here many times and it is always a homecoming. I am always surrounded by love, great food ( thanks Ramoneo) and the comfort that comes from having loving family, being loved, and happily giving love in return. Sue is a retired employee of Delta Airlines and took me to their wonderful museum near the Atlanta airport. It's the old hanger and has authentic airplanes for viewing inside and out from the early days up to one of the special ones, the spirit of Delta, that was purchased by the employees in 1982 when Delta Airlines was struggling to keep in the black. It's quite interesting, we were supposed to see the 747 but we missed the timing by 5 minutes to get in. I'm sure I'll get an opportunity to see it again.
Heading back to Florida tomorrow and we'll be spending the winter, at least as far as I know, in that state. I'm sure I'll have more Adventures and will write about them as they occur. It's been a great trip, a wonderful Adventure, a fulfilling sojourn in mind heart and soul. I anticipate doing more traveling next year. Stay tuned.

Last SD sites. Mt Rushmore and The Badlands

Yesterday busted out the last South Dakota points of interest. Only a drive by of Mt Rushmore as it was packed but took the scenic tour of The Badlands. Incredible. An ah ha moment at each turn. Hope the pictures can do it some justice. The rest of the trip was long and not very entertaining.  Stopped in Sioux Falls SD. Heading to Racine WI today to camp near Lake Michigan until Wed.

Hot Springs SD

Last day in Hot Springs SD. Had to get an oil change and tire rotation. Got to spend some time chatting with a cowboy named Matt Lanz. Interesting fellow who is actually an artist -does sculpture and paints teepees. He has a FB page called White Star studios. He also painted a teepee for the Mustang sanctuary we were at the other day. Also added  some pics of the area. It was a good visit all in all.  Oh yes.... The last pic is not for sure but it seemed at closer inspection to be someone's home.  I do believe there was some furniture and maybe a TV?  Very interesting.......
