more information soon....
Rob and Ann Logan welcomed 18 folks to Burke Lakefront in Cleveland on August 4th. Many locals were among the group including: Ray and Nadine Owen, Ben and Liz Borodsy, Cliff and Karen Daugherty and Marty Weinhous and his wife Pamela Duncan. Marty and Pamela brought friends, Charlie and Francoise Brink, who were visiting from Paris. Cliff and Karen are still enjoying the new paint job on their bird and are trying to decide on the interior makeover. The out-of-town guests were Ralph Provitz from Michigan, Doug, Sally and Andrea Martzall from West Milton, OH and Dave and Pam Nicholas from Indiana. This flyin gave Dave another chance to use his new Garmin 430, and that's always a good thing!
After a 12pm lunch at Hornblower's Barge and Grill, the group headed out to various activities. Some went to the Omnimax movie, Amazon, at the Great Lakes Science Center, while others explored the World War II era submarine, USS COD. Please keep this destination in mind for next year and we hope to have another great outing!

Come to http://www.airnav.com/airport/BKL 216-781-6411 this Saturday
August 4th 2001. Park under the control tower (there will be a section
for us and I'll be there from 10am to park aircraft). I tried and
failed to get the $5 landing fee waved. Gas is via a truck from one of
the onfield (but not under the tower) FBOs. If we can't get the ramp
fee waved, I'd take my business elsewhere. If we need to make a rain
day, it will be another weekend.
If you arrive early, check out the World War II fleet submarine USS COD
(opens at 10am $5/each) http://www.usscod.org which is *right* next to
the airport and Hornblowers or the free International Women's Air &
Space Museum http://www.iwasm.org in the airport terminal. The first
real commitment is:
Noon Lunch at Hornblower's Barge & Grill 216-363-1151
http://www.clevelandeats.com/hornblowersmenu.html
A short walk from the restaurant is the Great Lakes Science Center's
http://www.glsc.org 216-694-2000 six-story-tall, domed Omnimax Theater

Noon 2pm http://www.amazingcaves.com
Journey Into Amazing Caves tells the story of Nancy Aulenbach and Dr.
Hazel Barton, who share a love for caves and cave exploration. Join
these two accomplished cavers as they explore unusual caves, like ice
caves in Greenland and underwater caves in the jungles of Mexico,
looking for important clues about the Earth's past and microorganisms
that inhabit its most extreme environments. On the giant screen, this
unique story will transport viewers on an adventure to some of the most
extraordinary environments on earth.
11am 3pm http://www.amazonthefilm.com
In addition to being a journey of discovery, AMAZON is also a
captivating story of two "medicine men," from vastly different worlds,
who share a common quest. The film follows tribal shaman Julio Mamani
and American ethnobotanist Dr. Mark Plotkin on their searches for the
medicinal qualities of native plants. Here, Western medical science
meets the myth and magic of Indian shamanism, a very real collaboration
that may bring cures to diseases not yet conquered.
Along the journey, filmgoers are guided through the Amazon region. From
its source high in the Andes, through rain forests across South America,
they are introduced to an exotic menagerie of animals, including the
jaguar, tapir, pipa toad and sloth. In addition, viewers become part of
a "you-are-there" experience with several water creatures, such as pink
dolphins, electric eels, piranhas and pirarucus - fish that can attain a
length of 15 feet and a weight of 500 pounds.
1pm http://www.dolphinsfilm.com
Prepare for the greatest underwater adventure of your life! Swim in
turquoise waters alongside some of the most graceful and extraordinary
creatures on earth - wild dolphins. Dolphins allows audiences to dive
into the depths of the ocean on an amazing underwater adventure with
inquisitive spotted dolphins, acrobatic duskies and the familiar
bottlenose dolphins.
From the dazzling coral reefs of the Bahamas to the wind-swept seas of
Patagonia, follow scientists on a fascinating exploration into the wild
to study dolphins in their natural habitat. Learn firsthand about
dolphins unique form of communication and their social behaviors.
Dolphins will capture your imagination and give you new found respect
for the ocean and the importance of scientific research to preserve it.

Museum http://www.rockhall.com and Steamship William G. Mather Museum
http://little.nhlink.net/wgm are also within walking distance along the
beautiful Cleveland Lakefront park.
