We've been trying to knock some things off the mini list we created from the Cleveland Bucket List on a monthly basis since January. Although we haven't been successful in doing one per month, as I had originally hoped, I do think we've been pretty successful in keeping up with the list thus far. We picked a …

Tackling the Cleveland Bucket List
In one of my previous posts I mapped out my New Year's Resolutions because it helped me stay on track last year. Thanks to my master's degree program, I've only been somewhat successful at meeting my goals this first quarter of 2014, but what we have tackled has been fun. Once a month we try …

Local Adventures: Cleveland’s West Side
