Frank Lloyd Wright "Fallingwater," Mill Run, PA

This weekend we drove down to Pennsylvania to tour the famous Frank Lloyd Wright "Fallingwater" house. Just outside of Pittsburgh, we stayed at a charming B&B and drove to the house the next morning. Here is the video montage Matt created when we got back...

The West Side Market, Cleveland, Ohio

It might be Cleveland's best kept secret... Well, it was quite a find for us! The West Side Market, hidden in plain sight, right down the street from our hotel.
We wandered over on Sunday afternoon and discovered a world of bustle and aroma. There were people selling goods and foods representing every ethnic group around Cleveland. We could hardly believe this gastronomic wonderland had been right under our noses this entire time.



The Market is comprised of two main halls: one houses booths for produce and fresh flowers, the other is teeming with meats, cheeses, pastas, pickled snacks, baked goods, and various eat-as-you-go delights.



We snacked on spicy enchiladas, steaming pork buns, and a gigantic gyro that brought back memories of our old neighborhood.

What a fantastic discovery!
