This is a post created on behalf of Sloan Museum who provided us free admission for our honest review! No compensation was given and all opinions are our own.

We recently had the privilege of visiting Sloan Museum in Flint, Michigan. We were in the Flint area for a funeral and contacted Sloan Museum on our way up via Facebook. They were super responsive and very friendly. We love finding hidden gems when we travel and Sloan Museum offers just that!

Sloan Museum is part of the Culture Complex in Flint with an art museum, theatre, and planetarium all within walking distance. Unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to explore all of those properties.

BB Riverboat Cruise

By 3 Comments

This post is a conversation on behalf of Meet NKY and BB Riverboats.

We recently had a chance to attend the BB Riverboat’s Pirates of the Ohio Cruise. A super fun 90 minute cruise filled with tons of Pirate Activities like Walking the Plank, Swabbing the Deck, and even a Sword Fight! This was our family’s first time on a sightseeing cruise and it was the perfect mix of relaxed time and activity time. The weather was gorgeous to be out on the deck but there was plenty of room inside in case of bad weather.

I had never heard of Lantern Fest until last week when another blogger mentioned the event and that one would be close enough for my family to attend. I check out the website and pretty excited to be able to share this event with my reader’s.

Punderson Manor Lodge and Cabins

By Leave a Comment

Located about 30 minutes or so from Cleveland is a huge state park called Punderson State Park. It’s nestled into the Ohio countryside between Newberry and Burton off Rt. 87.

Punderson Manor Lodge and Cabins

One thing I have learned from this trip is to research, ask questions, and then double check the facts. I had called the main desk at Punderson Lodge and thought that there was a laundry service on the premises to find out that it was closer to 7 miles down the road in Burton. Also remember that places like this are for those wanting to relax so some things like meal service runs on a leisurely time schedule. Do not wait until you or your kids are really hungry to place a meal order otherwise you might have an unpleasant mealtime on your hands.
