Karen and I especially enjoyed our stay at the East Harbor Campground. Seven miles of wonderful hiking trails lead directly from the camping area along backwaters and wetlands of Lake Erie, ideal habitat for shorebirds, waterfowl and other wildlife. We also enjoyed the nearby sandy beach with 1,500-feet fronting on Lake Erie, and an immense shallow area where the water was quite warm in late August by Great Lakes standards.

This is the largest campground in the Ohio State Parks system with 365 electric sites and 205 non-electric. It was Labor Day weekend when we were here and the campground was filled to capacity. Those planning a trip to East Harbor in summer or on a holiday week-end are advised to make a reservation, which can be done through the website link below.

There is a well-stocked camp store and numerous recreational opportunities are available with equipment rentals at the camp office.

Built for priests in 1946 and then occupied by the leaders of the Estate, the cottage now houses the offices of the Company's field Maizerets the 2nd floor and the ground floor, the Service Center offers equipment rental (skis, skates and snowshoes in the winter, bikes and rollerblades in the summer), a warm home for visitors in winter, cold drinks vending and coffee, and toilets.

The Academy Award winner for Best Original Screenplay, Gosford Park is a whodunit as only director Robert Altman could do it. As a hunting party gathers at the country estate, no one is aware that before the weekend is over, someone will be murdered - twice! The police are baffled but the all-seeing, all-hearing servants know that almost everyone had a motive. This critically-acclaimed murder mystery features a who's who of celebrated actors. With a diverse cast of characters - all with something to hide - it'll keep you guessing right to the surprising end. Gosford Park proves that murder can be such an inconvenience.

Gosford Park finds director Robert Altman in sumptuously fine form indeed. From the opening shots, as the camera peers through the trees at an opulent English country estate, Altman exploits the 1930s period setting and whodunit formula of the film expertly. Aristocrats gather together for a weekend shooting party with their dutiful servants in tow, and the upstairs/downstairs division of the classes is perfectly tailored to Altman's method (as employed in Nashville and Short Cuts) of overlapping bits of dialogue and numerous subplots in order to betray underlying motives and the sins that propel them. Greed, vengeance, snobbery, and lust stir comic unrest as the near dizzying effect of brisk script turns is allayed by perhaps Altman's strongest ensemble to date. First and foremost, Maggie Smith is marvelous as Constance, a dependent countess with a quip for every occasion; Michael Gambon, as the ill-fated host, Sir William McCordle, is one of the most palpably salacious characters ever on screen; Kristin Scott Thomas is perfectly cold yet sexy as Lady Sylvia, Sir William's wife; and Helen Mirren, Emily Watson, and Clive Owen are equally memorable as key characters from the bustling servants' quarters below. Gosford Park manages to be fabulously entertaining while exposing human shortcomings, compromises, and our endless need for confession. --Fionn Meade
