Catch Up!

Last week was one of those weeks- a million things to do and I felt like I had no time. So this will be just a newsy little catch-up. We made it to Cedar Point last week- Cheyenne was dying to go on the Old Mill Race (she HAD to sit in the front), the Mine Ride, and the Gemini (my coaster won!). Then we opted for a quiet ride and took the Frontier Boat Ride but everytime one of those "revenooers" shot at us she hid under a bench. We ended the day with pizza and beer at Lil's Saloon and I had to carry her the next 9.1 miles to Marblehead. What an exhausting weekend!

The Marblehead Lighthouse has been in existence since 1822. Benajah Wolcott, a Revolutionary War veteran was the first lighthouse keeper. When he died in 1832 his wife, Rachel, took over. She became the first woman lighthouse keeper on the Great Lakes. I bet she would have interesting stories to tell! For more information on the Lighthouse and the Wolcott's see www.thekeepershouse.org/history.htm

Cheyenne and I are 2.9 miles into the next 14.3 leg trek to Port Clinton.

Oh yes, Cheyenne went to the vet last week. Her allergies are acting up, red feet, red belly, red ears. She got antibiotics and an allergy shot. The exciting news is she lost 1 pound!!! Must be those turkey dogs!!
