Off We Go to Ohio

July 29 - August 12, 2016
Grand Lake St Marys State Park

After our packed stay in Butler PA we headed onward to Lake St. Marys State Park in west central Ohio where we stayed for 2 weeks.  My first choice was East Harbor State Park on Lake Erie where I lived as a child, but they were full. I fully understand as it is quite a gem, so maybe next year.

We pretty much just chilled out.  Unfortunately the lake was too full of algae so there was no swimming and very little boating allowed.

The weeks were pretty quiet but weekends were filled with families, kids and cookouts.  By Sunday afternoon, almost everyone was gone.

We took a few trips around the area and the nearest town was Celina OH.  It was a lovely old town out of the 50s - very quaint, clean and very small town-ish.  

And around the lake..

  

  

The final night gave us a stunning display as if to say 

"don't go".   

But we did....go.

Maybe we'll be back, or maybe we'll just remember.

So many places, so little time.

 

I'll remember this place...always. 

  

On to Kentucky.
