Day 15 - Visit with the Schuberts in Cleveland, Ohio

Michael with Bev, Jack, and Chris Schubert

Okay! Listen up, people! The Schuberts RULE! Bev, Chris, and Jack Schubert are former clients of ours from Seattle. About 2 years ago they moved out to Cleveland, Ohio - where Chris is from originally - and since this was on our path more or less, we decided we had to visit them.

On Wednesday we zipped out of Philadelphia and headed west. The roads in western Pennsylvania are gorgeous. And they should be! The tolls cost us $32. We passed through several mountains on our way to Ohio. That’s right, through. Rather than winding around or over, the interstate tunnels right through Alleghany Mountain, Blue Mountain, and several others.

Interstate 276 tunnel through Blue mountain in western Pennsylvania.

After a quick seven hours on the road we arrived at the Schubert’s place outside of Cleveland, Ohio. Holy beautiful house, batman! They are currently living in a stunning 6-bedroom house that sits on 7 manicured acres and includes a 4-car garage and two ponds loaded with frogs, one large turtle and fish. And it’s for sale! Spread the word!!! Bev and Chris and Jack are moving back to Seattle (hooray!) as soon as they can sell their place.

I hate imposing upon people, but they made us feel so comfortable that we stayed 3 days! They took us to local restaurants like Sokolowski’s where you can load yourself with piles of polish cooking. I LOVE local restaurants! And they made sure we visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland. I had no idea this was in Cleveland, so I’m thankful they suggested it. Most of the time we just hung out…in their cavernous house. Soooo cool. Thank you Bev and Chris!! (We are still stuffed!)

Here are a few pictures I took of their place:

  2. We loved having you guys stop in for a visit!
    There is nothing better than hanging out with friends- laughing, eating and showing you around a bit.
    We look forward to coming to visit you guys in Leavenworth!

    I hope Christy does buy our house. We do have a Pottery barn armoire and I think jack's bed is PB too!
