One More for the Bucket List

Last week, I was in Michigan visiting my best friend (actually she's more like a big sister). We had so much fun playing with her girls Larae (8) and Iris (6), they're so cute! We carved pumpkins, watched movies, colored (in case you didn't know I don't need kids around for an excuse to color) but Monday we did one of my Bucket List items. We took the girls out of school (which they thought was so cool) and drove to Cleveland and went to the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame. It was amazing. If you love any form of rock (classic, oldies, etc) and memorbilia you need to go. Of course the main reason I wanted to go is that there is a temporary Bruce Springsteen exhibit. It was amazing. There were 2 whole floors of Bruce "stuff." It was all from him private collection, there was even a scrapbook from his 19th birthday. Everything was original, old notebooks with lyrics, clothes, instruments, everything you can think of. Unfortunately, you can't take pictures but I did sneak a few on my phone. Afterwards, we took the girls to the Hard Rock Cafe for lunch. I figured it was the only place to eat after experiencing the hall of fame.

The Bruce exhibit. And I now realize this sweater isn't
very flattering.
