| August 6, 2005 Canton / Akron area, Ohio Today I had planned on taking the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad down to Canton, visiting the Pro Football Hall of Fame, then returning on the train in the afternoon. However, a rainstorm on Thursday night washed out part of the track. I didn't know that until I got to the station. I still did my trip down to Canton, but just drove. However, this is what the view looks like from one of the train stations. |

| Here's the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It's much smaller than I thought. | |||

| Below are some shots of my favorite coach (Tom Landry) and two of my favorite players (Roger Staubach and Randy White). I realized too late that I didn't go back and get a picture of Bob Lilly. This was back when the Dallas Cowboys stood for integrity, and decency and positive values ... before the "dark side" took over. | |||

| After the Hall of Fame, I went down to the William McKinley Memorial and Presidential Library. | |||
 |

 |
|||
| After an unplanned adventure getting out of Canton (they need to give some signs with directions when they close an entrance ramp to a freeway), I headed back to Akron to see their zoo. Below are some of their residents. | |||
