  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

  • 3HM-15K Honors Project
    Three Hard Misses To Fifteen Kisses Melody Johnson “Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.” ~The Wizard of Oz One Monday The basement was a dustier version of the wreck I’d ignored nine months ago. I stood rooted at the bottom of our basement stairs, transfixed in horror and clutching the cold, chipped, metal banister as I absorbed the monstrosity of what used to be my father’s bedroom. I couldn’t sort through this crap with a hired search and rescue team, an unlimited supply of Aderoll, and with my sanity intact even if I made a deal with Al Pacino let alone by the end of the summer, I thought miserably. Frank could have labeled each box with his harsh, slashing handwriting, taped their flaps securely with clear packaging tape, and stashed them in his girlfriend’s basement when he moved in with her nine years ago. He could have at least stacked them neatly and covered them with a garbage bag in the corner of Mama Margoe’s basement instead of leaving them scattered randomly over the cement floor to collect dust— a couple on the rug next to the slanted planks he’d used for book shelves, five in a precarious pile near the bed, one on the desk— so when he died last fall, Margoe’s claim that the boxes were, “just fine as they are, for heaven’s sake Patricia,” could have been legitimate. I hadn’t rummaged through them when he left. While he’d been with Susan it had felt like an invasion of privacy, as if he might have returned for them or might have needed them or might have realized that he belonged back here with us.
