More of Toledo

Wednesday, August 15 - This morning Mom and Dad went to the National Museum of the Great Lakes in Toledo.  From the Museum, they saw this ship coming into the Port of Toledo.

For lunch, they had Hungarian Hot Dogs at Tony Packo's.  This restaurant was made famous by Corporal Klinger on Mash.

After lunch, they went to the Toledo Art Museum.  Specifically, they wanted to see the Glass Pavillion.

The Museum itself was a work of Art with floor to ceiling curved glass walls.

The Art Museum even had a chair like the ones Dad made. 

A relaxing stop, after a full day.

We've been doing some bouncing around.  I thought you might like to see where we've been the last couple of weeks.
