Garfield Monument
The day was Labour Day, and it is one of the hardest days to plan when we are on a trip. Monday’s are particularly bad since many of the places we want to see are closed, and then there’s the consideration that it was a…
Cranbrook House and Gardens
It is hard to believe that it has been three years since we last visited Cranbrook House and Gardens. This location has been one that I have been trying to revisit, but there are so many other places that also demand our attention. It was…

The Disappointment of the Donnelly Massacre Tour
