To all those who said "CLEVELAND????" when we moved:
Today our family went to see how they make maple syrup. We went on a hike to see the different collection methods they use to get out the sap (and tasted some right out of the tree), and then learned how they prepared it.
Since June, we have also gone blueberry picking, apple picking, and to the Farm park (which included the chance to help milk a cow) -- all within a half hour drive of our home. And the museums are so much cheaper, with free parking -- and free zoo admission every Monday. The libraries are open on Sundays and have playrooms and weekly activities.
So our son has done more activities outside the home in the eight months we've been here than in his first three years in Los Angeles. Yay!

Where is a child supposed to play in the Urban Jungle? I agree, yay.
Getting out of the cities is the best things for kids. Do we really need 50 kosher restaurants, or is it better to be able to go to a museum?
I vote for 50 Kosher restaurants AND a museum or three... AND a symphony... AND a park to play in... AND people being less mean, sucking less and excercising respect for oneself and others.
Maybe I just want alot of things.
