Cleveland

My husband was born & raised in the east side suburbs of Cleveland. So we headed to Cleveland to see family and enjoy playing outside...especially by water...the great Lake Erie. It was 3 years since our last visit.
Here the boys are enjoying the sand at Fairport Harbor.
Ta-da! Here I am hanging on the beach.

Catching dragon flies. What a novelty for Arizona kids!!
