I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
We can all use a change of scenery from time to time — a fresh perspective and a new experience. Ohio is a beautiful state that’s easy to take for granted, which is why we recommend playing “tourist” in your hometown! In Toledo, J&M Cruise Lines offers a canal boat tour that does just that, inviting folks to climb aboard the Sandpiper for an unforgettable journey down the magnificent Maumee River.
Ohio's largest cities are located on the water: Cincinnati, the Ohio River; Columbus, the Scioto River; and Cleveland, Lake Erie. Toledo, too, is located on the water, along the magnificent Maumee River.
It isn't often that one gets a chance to explore their hometown *from* the water, which is what makes the canal boat tour offered by J&M Cruise Lines so unique.
The Sandpiper was built in 1984 in Maumee, Ohio. She has spent her entire career plying the waters of the Maumee River, offering guests the unique opportunity to experience Toledo, Ohio, from the water.
The Sandpiper cruises past numerous iconic landmarks and points of interest, including Toledo's famed Glass City River Wall, the largest mural in the country.
Whether you are looking for a unique excursion with the family or a fun-filled night with friends, the Sandpiper delivers. This is easily the most fun you'll have touring Toledo, Ohio!
