O Diomedes‚ bravest of the race of Greeks! Why could I not have perished on the Trojan plain‚ and have poured out my life at your right hand‚ where fierce Hector lies by the spear of Achilles‚ where great Sarpedon‚ where the river Simois rolls

Cleveland is home of the Cavaliers‚ Indians‚ and the Browns. July of 2017 is was able to take a trip to Cleveland‚ Ohio. The main reason we went was because it was a huge bowling tournament.
