Ohio and Home

Off to Lake Erie for a mermaid pic and Marblehead Lighthouse with Grandpa and Oma.  Like Rob, Grandpa rarely smiles in photos...like father, like son. 

Up the swirly stairs.  Amelia didn't like these at all. 

Nor did she like the top of the lighthouse.    

But loved the rocks and water. 

Next day off to the Carousel with Grammy for our annual jaunt.

Wouldn't be a trip without stopping at Coney Island for a hot dog.

Did some shopping with Grammy too.

Our last few days in Ohio were spent in Grandpa's pool where even Grandpa joined in on the fun.

Griswald too. 

Back at Grammy's Amelia shucked some corn with 

Grandpa Art

 and tended the garden with Grammy.

 I took pictures.

Finally, got to see Aunt Nat too!

Five weeks later, the trip complete.  We headed for home.

No photo of daddy/daughter reuniting as he was away in Oklahoma City on work when we arrived.   We were all home together again in a few days to start packing up for the big move to the rental house while our earthquake damage repairs began.  Lots more on that.
