Toledo Ohio: Museums + Coffee

Started the day with a coffee with Maddie & Bella Coffee Roasters followed by a visit to the National Museum of the Great Lakes and a tour of the Great Lakes freighter Col. James Schoonmaker.  This freighter was commissioned in 1911 and was the largest Great Lakes freighter at that time. The freighter worked the Great Lakes until 1980 carrying grain, coal and ore. 0006
