Day 31 Bellevue to Streetsboro

Yesterday I wrote something about “Lime Capital of the World” and it was because no matter the size of a town we have come through it each has its reason to recognized on a global scale or at least a US scale. I remember a town in Idaho, which claimed to have US’ longest main street. It was a small town indeed but they had placed the city limit signs at a considerable distance from the five houses which comprised the town and everything between the signs was defined as the main street.

Today we happened to have lunch in the frog jump capital of Ohio. Unfortunately we missed the 58th frog jump festival by a week. Better luck next year, if we come through Ohio next August.

After lunch we suddenly found some serious hills again. We cut through Cuyahoga National Park. Not the longest hills but some of the steepest we have had – it could be a fore warning of what we may encounter in Pennsylvania, where we will try to take the direct route, where it will be more hilly and with longer distances between towns with motels and hotels.

Afternoon ritual

When we reach our destination we focus on food and drink. The grocery shopping list normally looks like this:

Milk and Beer to drive the travel dust down our throats and juice, sugar beverage and water for tomorrow’s ride

Thereafter we find the nearest restaurant and have a dinner and return to our room to write a few words about the day.

Dusk in Streetsboro Our hotel and our place to have breakfast.

Where we are tonight

We have passed Cleveland – Rock’n Roll Hall of Fame will be next time, I am in the neighborhood. Streetsboro is in the North East corner of Ohio.

Had there been just 3-4 letters more in the town’s name, it would have stretched all the way into the Atlantic Ocean
