We returned safely from a whirlwind trip to Canton, OH for Karen's 20th high school class reunion. Along the way we had great fall weather, and a fun hotel stay with an indoor water park. On the return trip yesterday we had a great stopover at Ohio Renaissance Festival. Karen and the kids have been studying the Medieval and Renaissance periods during homeschool the last two weeks. This led to the discovery of this little excursion, and it was definitely a worthy stopover. The 'village' which this takes place is a permanent structure that has such an air of authenticity about it that you feel like you are in a different era. During 3 hours there, although exhausted, we hardly got to experience all there was. We did, however, get to experience mead, archery, and catapulting frogs!
