Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (Cleveland, Ohio)

We really could have spent a couple of days touring the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, there was just so much to see, to read, to hear, to take in. We were there when it opened at 10:00 a.m. and left at 5:00 p.m., with just a quick break for lunch, and still didn't see it all. Set on the shore of Lake Erie, and established in 1983, the hall of fame is dedicated to archiving the history of some of the best-known and most influential artists, producers, engineers and others who have, in some major way, influenced the music industry in the genre of rock music. The featured exhibit during our visit was "Grateful Dead: The Long, Strange Trip", and we spent a considerable amount of time exploring that. No photography was allowed throughout the majority of the museum, but we made up for that by taking numerous pictures of the many giant-sized guitars adorning the courtyard.
