Thanks, Apple, for the tidbits!!!

We have come 691 miles - about another 44 miles to Toledo! Tomorrow it is supposed to be partly cloudy and between 51 and 71 degrees. Great walking weather!

Toledo is the 4th largest city in Ohio and covers 83 square miles, with a population of 300,000. Note info is from the official city website.

Maumee Valley Walleye Weekend is April 16-17 but we will be out of town by then probably!

From other sites... Toledo was settled in 1794 with the name Fort Industry, after the Battle of Fallen Timbers. However, after the War of 1812 everyone fled and it was resettled in 1817 with a purchased syndicate and called Port Lawrence. Three years later syndicate failed and residents joined up with settlement called Vistula, and the joined settlement was called Toledo; several different legends as to why.

Hi guys you're doing awesome. I live just north of Toledo but am in Michigan. Did you know there was a battle as to which state would get claim of Toledo. Michigan "lost" and was rewarded with the upper penninsula. (Which to be honest is a much prettier place to visit.) Toledo is also the GLASS CITY. Home to Libby glass and currently hosting a Tiffany glass exhibit at the Toledo Museum of Art (one of the coolest things in the city!) Have a great journey as you continue!

Whoa, I've fallen behind again... wait for me, wait for me....

Shopping, shopping, shopping! I did quite a bit of walking yesterday when I went shopping with Mom again. It's always funny going shopping with her. We were out for 4 hours yesterday and got: paper plates, plastic cups, orange juice, some reflective film for my windows, soap, and vitamins. 4 hours!

4 miles today.
Have a great day ya'll!

You sound like me when I go shopping Lydia. I can go shopping for hours and come home with nothing most times. Or come home with a thing of honey and some coffee filters and be gone for 6-8 hours.

It's raining today so I don't think I'll get out for a walk...I'll try to at least put in 1 mile, but I usually walk in the morning and that ain't gonna happen today......
Thanks for the Toledo facts, Misti!

Dear husband was grumpy this evening so I went walking again to get out of the house. Another 4 miles tonight.

Ciarra! Another 4 miles thanks to your husband's grumpieness. I am glad something good came out of it! God bless.~

Brandy.. thanks so much for sharing! This was especially interesting to me as the Seattle area is also "big" into glass. We have Dale Chihuly who is fantastic! In fact when my niece comes to visit we are going to the Tacoma Art Glass Museum the day before we leave on the cruise!!
