On Friday 19-Sept we participated in the Collinwood High School reunion events at the school and around town. Photos below show a school newspaper article on Jessie & 3 other smart students, the reunion diner in the Croatian Hall, the school auditorium, which could seat about 4000, and the high school front door and tower. The reunion included a bus tour of downtown Cleveland.  We took pictures of the city skyline, including Terminal Tower.

Says Jessie: This was the first time I’ve seen many parts of Cleveland in many, many years. Lots of changes, most good; the art museum and Severance Hall look as good as always. The Cleveland Clinic is amazing – the largest employer in the state.

At mid-day on Wednesday 17-Sept we boarded a jet at SFO and headed east on the first leg of our 6 week trip to Cleveland, England & Europe.  We stopped in Cleveland to attend Jessie’s high school reunion and visit with relatives.

We drove to east Cleveland and looked for Jessie’s home while she was in high school.  We found it in a neighborhood of neatly tended homes.
