Allegheny National Forest - Kane, Pennsylvania

Today we traveled from Country Acres Campground in Ravenna, Ohio to the Red Bridge Campground in the Allegheny National Forest near Kane, Pennsylvania.  It rained all day and is still raining so we really haven't checked out the campground.  Our site is within sight of the Allegheny River.  We prefer National Forest campgrounds because the camp sites are generally larger and more private and they are less expensive - we are paying $15. per night here (with the senior discount) and have an electric hookup.    We will be here for two days and then are heading to Tioga Downs Casino in Nichols, NY (free overnight RV parking) for one night and then on to Saratoga Casino in Saratoga Springs, NY (also free overnight RV parking) for one night. From there we will drive straight through to New Hampshire which is only about 3 hours away from Saratoga Springs, NY.

Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame

Well we made it to Cleveland and the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame on Tuesday.  It was well worth the trip even on a very cold, rainy and windy day.  The best description of the place in my opinion would be "sensory overload" - both visual and auditory.  There was so much to see and there was a constant background of music in multiple genres playing at the same time.  After three hours we both had the sense of let us out of here, but, as soon as we left we worried that we missed something and thought maybe we should go back in and see some more.  We would definitely come back again. 

The pictures below represent just a small portion of what is there.

Country Acres Campground - Ravenna, OH

Sunday we left Leith Run Campground and traveled to Country Acres Campground in Ravenna, Ohio.  We chose this location because we wanted to visit the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame and this location was convenient to Cleveland without being in the city or its suburbs - it is about 45 minutes outside of Cleveland.  The campground is not bad - we probably saw it at its worst as there has been an abundance of rain and there is a lot of mud and puddles but otherwise it is not a bad place.  They have a catch and release fishing pond where I have so far caught a couple fairly good sized bass.
