At the turnoff to McCormick’s Creek on the drive back from Bloomington, you can see the edge of the little town of Spencer, Indiana. The town is named for Spier Spencer who died in the Battle of Tippecanoe. We thought that with some daylight left, we could venture into downtown. It’s a pretty little place with an impressive courthouse and two geocaches that brought our total found to 555!
  
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.
