Day 17, June 6th, Off day in Cleveland.  We slept in, got coffee at the Starbucks in the hotel and headed out for some breakfast and to find the auto rental office for Sam.  We got a recommendation for a breakfast place that was very good and walked around downtown Cleveland looking for the rental office.  The address said 1705 12th Street but the hole in the wall office was actually on Superior Street.  The day was sunny and about 70 with a cool breeze off the lake.  After locating the rental office, we headed to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on the Lake Erie lakefront.  The Hall of Fame building was designed by I.M. Pei with a lot of glass and open areas.  The exhibits are very well done and if you follow the recommended path, you learn a lot about the origins and early days of rock and roll music as well as information of legends of the industry.  There are wonderful exhibits about all the great bands and performers and a good mix of films, displays, and interactive kiosks.  I would highly recommend a visit.  I will need more time off after the ride to bring Cindy to Cleveland.  Sam Stoakley left about an hour ago heading back to Richmond.  The group now is 2 (Dave and I) with no adult supervision, not that Sam did much to keep us on track.  Tomorrow we hit the road across Ohio heading for Huron, OH.
