Or friends Mary and Jim invited us to visit their Prairie Edge Farm. A few years ago they purchased an old house on a piece of property that was once a farm owned by the Olsen family. They restored the name of the farm and are lovingly restoring the house. We got a tour of the grounds and the garden as well as a chance to meet their hens, The Girls, and their two roosters. It was a wonderful visit and a delicious quiche prepared from gifts given by The Girls!
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
