Conneaut is a city in Ashtabula County, Ohio, United States, along Lake Erie at the mouth of Conneaut Creek, which is the number one steelhead trout stream in the country. Conneaut was discovered in 1796 by Moses Cleaveland on July 4th. As an early settlement it was named Salem. It was established in 1837, at a site beside Conneaut Creek. The city of Conneaut is located on an old Native American trail, later used by early westbound pioneers.
We stayed at Evergreen RV Park and found it to be a wonderful place to stay for a few days. One of the residents told us about the tornado which struck the park on June 27th. That was a very rare event according to him. One of the RVs was up a tree and inside were two little girls. Fortunately no one was injured and the damage to the park could be fixed by the 4th of July. When we drove through the town we could see the evidence of a tornado and we were just amazed that no one was injured. Conneaut has a wonderful downtown area that was fun to walk. Even Dollar General is housed in a historical building. I found the Town Hall building the most interesting.

Since your phone crapped out I have felt lonely without all the texts : ( Please fix it pronto!
And a dollar general in a historical building sounds lovely. Fluorescent lighting and musty smells unite!
Love following your trip.
