August Free Family Events (Cleveland, OH)

Tomorrow is the last day of the summer session at Tri-C. It has been a wonderful group of students, and while I am excited for the break, I will miss seeing them.

June Free Family Events (Cleveland, OH)

The spring rains have brought the green of life to northeast Ohio.

And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient toContinue reading “April Free Family Events (Cleveland, OH)”

March Free Family Events (Cleveland, OH)

We feel it has been a very mild winter (you may disagree :o). A few days of very cold, a few days of snow, but overall not bad (unless you were looking forward to more snow activities). Well March is here, so we may get a few more big snows yet, but any snow nowContinue reading “March Free Family Events (Cleveland, OH)”
