Ohio to Canada

We spent the morning at the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Jen and the kids are standing in molds of a single leg of NFL players. Jen's is Jerome Bettis, A1's is Leonard Davis, and A2's is Gilbert Brown. Then Jen is showing that she is taller than at least one former NFL player. She would have had him even without heels. Next is the Lombardi Trophy, that one will be awarded to next year's winner. Canada! The view of the Horseshoe Falls from our dinner restaurant.
