Hot in Cleveland....yeah right

   I went on a business trip to Cleveland a few weeks ago. Do you remember when about 2,000 flights to and from Atlanta were cancelled due to ice during February? Yeah, that's when I went to Cleveland. As you most likely figured, my original departing flight was cancelled. Snow in Cleveland; ice in Atlanta. But it was no worries--turned out to be a fun and productive trip.

   Typically, when I visit various markets, there isn't a lot of time to experience the city from a tourist's point-of-view. I spend all day on sales calls (which is delightful because I get to meet the people of the visited city) and then spend the evening catching up on emails in my hotel room.

   But my trip to Cleveland was different. Some of you may or may not know this about me, but I truly enjoy NBA basketball. I won't say I'm an avid fan because I rarely watch it on television, other than the Playoffs. Anyhoo, it just so happened that the Cavaliers were playing a game during my visit and I really, really wanted to go. I was planning to play it by ear and make sure the station had not planned anything for that particular evening before I purchased my ticket. While waiting for my delayed flight in Atlanta, I received a text asking if I'd like to attend the game!!! The tired people around me looked at me like I was crazy when I whooped and hollered after receiving that text.

  Needless to say, the game was great! I'm not a Cavaliers fan, per se, but I certainly wasn't going to miss the opportunity to see them play. Enjoy a couple of pictures, below.





  I decided to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame while being stranded in Cleveland. I didn't really care anything about it, but I figured...when in Cleveland. I don't have anything against Rock N Roll, I just particularly care about any music hall of fame. I can see sequins at Hobby Lobby and guitars at any music shop. (I know some of you are completely rolling your eyes right now. I don't blame you.)
