I want to say the Hallee's museum is near the Holden Arboretum. I'll have to find out exactly where from my sister.
The reason they picked that location is because the Hallee Family lived in Waite Hill. In fact on Smith Rd. My great aunt & uncle lived about 4 houses down from them. The Sherwin (Williams) Family owned almost all the land on the other side of the street and had their own aminal & bird sanctuary.
The original Mr. Hallee died many years ago and Mrs. Hallee lived for a long time after. When she died the Hallee's son and his wife opened this museum in their honor.
Another person that lived in Waite Hill was that creepy Art Modell....nobody liked him. Very arrogant!

My sister said that many grocery stores in the area carry Euclid Beach Treats. Heinen's in Mentor has them all the time. Doesn't do me any good...I'm near Houston!

Speaking of Euclid Beach...Do you remember the Fun House and the old lady & man who were showcased outside just laughing constantly? The Lady's name was Laughing Sal..(can't remember the man's name) Anyway someone found Laughing Sal in a warehouse about 6-7 years ago....she was not in good shape. She was totally restored to her original image. The first year she was 'out' she was displayed at stores all over the Cleveland area.
Now she's available to RENT...it used to be $400.00 for a weekend.....price may be different now. Doesn't that bring back memories?

Yes, he was on WGCL. He had some hysterical regulars that would call in each Sunday night. Gotta love the '80s...

Sterling Linder Davis...the beautiful tree and do you remember Francis The Mule? ( a Christmas time attraction) He'd talk to you thru a wooden window and then he would slide a gift out to you through a little opening under the window. (Sounds creepy now! It wasn't then)
Francis the Talking Mule at Christmas -- I remember him well! I love watching "A Christmas Story" and seeing Higbees all decorated the way I remember it (though I came along a few years after the movie's era.

My elementary school in Fairview was torn down year before last -- I didn't know it was happening, since I've lived away from the Cleveland area for many years. I would love to have visited it one last time.

This thread is a wonderful trip down Memory Lane. I'm the reunion chairman for my class ('67) and we're having a combined '67-'68-'69 reunion this July. I've been scouring the web for old Cleveland pictures and memorabilia, especially West Side.
