Thanks Samantha, I'd love to visit Cooperstown. When I saw Hank Aaron's boyhood home at Mobile's minor league stadium with all it's incredible baseball memorabilia, I knew I had to see the Baseball Hall of Fame one day. Thanks for showing me what to expect!

Hi Rob, it is a really cool place to visit. I had been to the Negro Hall of Fame in Kansas, but not the one in Cooperstown. It was so worth the wait! Thanks for mentioning Aaron's home in Mobile. I would like to see it someday too. Have a great weekend

You can't help but be impressed with the Aaron family after seeing the place! Glad to see the Hall of Fame has a great Hank Aaron section too! My blog on Hank Aaron's childhood home: https://www.travelgumbo.com/blo...ron-s-childhood-home

Fascinating to see that a hike in such rugged scenery can actually be an easy walk! There must be many more like that, that compare to a serious city walk and not to mountain-climbing. Good!

For Samantha, a huge baseball fan, a visit to baseball's Hall of Fame at Cooperstown was a dream come true, and one she shares with us.

Good to see some common sense rules that street performers,the public,businesses and police can support. Sounds like they struck the right balance . I hope others cities follow London's lead rather that ban all performers if problems arise.

This may go down in retail history as the stingiest promotion ever offered by a corporate entity. Three (3)? Really? Absurd and yet another reason to color HoJo tacky, as well as orange (or maybe that's the same thing).

'Tis true, I fear. The lucky 60 people who mention the special rate on the specified day will get 60% off. It's 60, because it only applies to the first 3 at 20 hotels. I was intrigued because New York at $67 a night was listed on their press release...but at the website for the promotion, clicking on New York gives a New York address, but clicking on the address pulls up a hotel in Bangor, ME. A lovely place, I know...but the morning commute to Manhattan can be a little tough... PS...I just...
