Lost Lake Erie
Serene one moment and destructive the next, Lake Erie's moods mirror its tumultuous role in history. As the site of Cleveland's Great Lakes Exposition, the lake offered visitors a respite from the Great Depression, and Hotel Victory, once considered the world's largest summer resort, drew thousands to Put-In-Bay. Daring postal workers dangerously crossed the ice-covered surface on hybrid "boats" and by foot. Canal Street, at the Buffalo Wharf, was once called "the Wickedest Street in America." The Erie is one of thousands of ships that lie in a solemn graveyard below the surface. And rum runners turned the lake into a watery highway for illegal booze during Prohibition. Author Jennifer Boresz Engelking reveals entertaining, heartbreaking, and nostalgic stories of the lost sites, businesses and industries of Lake Erie.

Life's Twists and Turns
I remember, Youth. I once firmly grasp your passion for life.I ran with your endless energy, flying over hill and dale, the wind straining to catch up and warm sunlight on my face.At night the stars were within my grasp and love surrounded my every move.Your strength pushed me to higher levels, free from pain, fatigue or future cares.Suddenly, somewhere along the joy-filled way of life I stopped to sleep. When I awakened you were gone.I searched for you but found you left me behind. In the accompaniment of a new lover you deserted me.I cry out for your return but to no avail.Now, I find solace in memories and sit a lonely traveler in a grim world filled with challenges I no longer care to take.My dreams are of youth and its thrills.But there is hope for my spirit is still young. In my mind I still run, love, conquer difficulties. I watch you now, in the laughter and song of my children and grandchildren.I find that you never left after all. You are endless.
