Spring in Cleveland

Spring is a very welcome site in Cleveland. The winters seem long, the cold weather gets old, but boy that makes you ever so much more appreciative of the beautiful spring. After months of cold, snow, clouds and bare tree's and brown grass it is an amazing transformation to see it all come to life again. In climates that don't share the season's like Cleveland does I don't think you can fully appreciate the beauty of spring. As the days get longer and grass gets greener...the birds return and you hear their morning songs. It is truly an amazing transformation.

I welcome spring....

The Lakefront

Cleveland has a beautiful lakefront...its just impossible to get to. Between the stadium ("Go Browns"), the airport and the freeway there's not much space left for anything else. In the last 10+ years the city has tried to improve the waterfront. We now have the Great Lakes Science Center, The Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame and several other attractions that can be reached from the heart of the city in minutes...if you drive your car...oh wait, then where will you park? Yep, not easy to do.

I love taking sunset pictures, I'm not very good at it, but I do enjoy it. And pictures from the park behind the Rock-n-Roll hall of fame are some of the most beautiful. I have posted one for you to see. Cleveland is a beautiful city, when you look through the right lens...

...more to come.

Cleveland is an Interesting Town

Cleveland is an interesting town. We have many of the issues of a big city, but we just aren't that big. Cleveland has many things that make it special, the lake front, the sports teams, the history in the US industrial revolution, but it is still having difficulty finding its place in today's society. We have a growing medical industry in Cleveland with a couple of the top hospitals not only in the country but in the world...The Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals. They are both shining lights.

However, Cleveland's crime, unemployment and deplorable school system serve as a black eye. Cleveland lack's the leadership over the past 10 years has only continued this decline and now with County and State government fiasco's the embarassment continues.
