These events are just a short drive from where I live...so I definitely plan to attend!

Have you ever been to the Keeper's House? It is free, and open summer weekdays from 1-5. It's really a nice place to visit, and there is a cute photo op spot close by. (Two people can place their face in a cut-out circle, and you can pretend to be Mr. & Mrs. Wolcott!)

We have (been to the Keeper's House) but it was a long time ago. Going back to that area of northern Ohio is still on my list of things to do! Cathy @ palmsrv
