On May 13 and 14, my Mom & Dad came down for a little visit.

On Day 1, we drove out the Grand Rapids (Ohio) to do some geo-caching and check out some of the local shops.

We made a detour to this little spot north of Grand Rapids to find a few geocaches.  This spot was a little, old canal off the north side of the Maumee River.

Getting to this geocache was treacherous!  We had to carefully walk across a fallen tree over a little ditch.

Grand Rapids is an old canal town, south of the Maumee River.  The town has made a wonderful little park area alongside the canal (you can see the canal in the background behind my dad).

The little shops in Grand Rapids have lots of character!
