I have friends who are Cubs fans and they drive out from Delaware to see games every now and then. They know someone in Ohio that they stop there on the way for an overnight break. I had thought about driving and bringing my dog but I was getting over a bad cold and didn't think I had it in me. Parking seems to be very expensive also so I'm kind of glad I didn't. Public transportation was great....my problem with short trips is that once I get my bearings and figure out how to navigate the place....I have to leave
