Disconnected

I'm pleased that my trip abroad has left me changed, but I'm feeling a bittersweet disconnect with Cleveland right now. I can read your blogs, I can read the paper, but what I really want is someone to describe to me the feeling in Cleveland right now - how is the autumn coming on, how does the Lake look, how are civic energies at play? Give me a thumbnail description - something visceral, something honest. Tell me, tell me, whoever can.
