Hey.... Blue lives out in that neck of the woods, lol!! He doesn't have a beard or mustache.... or horse & buggy either! I think.... I've never looked in his barn.

I'm not a member of the Olds club yet either.... something I keep meaning to do.

Tuscora Park -Putt-Putt is gone but the Carousel and Ferris Wheel are still there and in operation. they Still have .05 (nickel day) once each summer. All rides and popcorn for a nickel each - all day. Rides are only a buck every other day!!
Still a great park. They have a great car show there each 4th of July weekend too!!

If you have heart problems it's the best city in the world to be near.
People come to Cleveland from faraway lands every day to go the the Cleveland Clinic.


Ask anybody down there, nobody "lives" in Cleveland they stay somewhere.
As in "I stay at my baby's momma's house".

Every other driveway in Cleveland has a G body with 22's on it along with an anchor chain from an iron ore freighter hooked to the car with a pit bull on the other end.
