into downtown. At the station there was this place (I think it was off of Halle's basement) that made super milkshakes. When my SO and I were first dating, we managed to walk into what was called the Cleveland Municipal Stadium on a random weekday and wander around the empty field and dugout without getting caught.

My great-grandfather, Charles Adams, was instrumental in establishing Cleveland as a city. He started what turned into the Chamber of Commerce and was a huge deal in the city. I have telegrams to him from a Rockefeller and all sorts of Cleveland memorabilia from the 20's and 30's.

I was raised in a suburb of Cleveland called Shaker Heights.
