Sailing Starting Over Home From Cleveland Ohio
Sailing starting over home, there is nothing better then going back home to Lakewood, Ohio. The place I called home for the first several years of my life... This time I flew into Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, Cleveland, Ohio. To my surprise Southwest airlines was ahead of schedule. I rented a car and I could not wait to hit the road and catch up with everyone. Sometimes I'll stay at a local hotel in Middleburg Heights, Ohio. This way I have the freedom of coming and going without disturbing anyone. But this time I stayed at my girlfriends house who lives in Strongsville, Ohio.
I was not too successful updating the blog like I wanted to. Art's laptop has been stuck on stupid and not use able. It's time to buy another one. His laptop's hard drive is frozen...just like the temperatures in Cleveland. I went to the Lakewood Library on Madison avenue to update the Sailing blog, more about the Sailing Blog. The place was packed with people waiting to get on the Internet. You could sign up and use the libraries computer for an hour. That's where I did my blog work. Sailing starting over home

One way to warm up was to find the local health club. I belong to the YMCA here in Florida, which allows me when we travel to go to other branches, such as Lakewood, Ohio YMCA. It's a brand new building maybe a year old, wow, brand new stream lined equipment. I get spoiled when I workout there. Rain, flooding, freezing ice and the snow made me feel right at home. My first few steps outside the airport, I almost lost my balance as I slid across the pavement. Yep! not so graceful! The days there went way to quick...The hardest challenge is finding enough time to catch up with everyone.

Return flight to Florida from Cleveland, Ohio on Southwest airlines was ahead of schedule again. Arrived here in Florida 20 minutes early. Smooth Sailing!
Mean while on the home front, Sailing starting over home at the marina, Art and I said goodbye to our friend, Frederik. He has left here to begin his journey home to Holland, where his girlfriend awaits his arrival.
Frederik always sported a smile as we ate a meal or two, sharing stories about our adventures. So if you run into our friend along your journey, take care of him.

This was a well needed break, between working on the boat, building this website business and so on and so forth, the days just blurred together. Time off to catch up and enjoy family and friends.
