Jim Morrison

When visiting the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Saturday, I was fascinated by all the material they had on Jim Morrison of The Doors. I had no idea his father was an Admiral and worked at the Pentagon. Morrison hated the strict lifestyle his father provided, and therefore decided to act out early on. The Hall of Fame had an actual letter from a police department to his father asking for help in taming Morrison after he was arrested for lewd behavior onstage at a concert.

I knew he died in Paris and assumed it was of a drug overdose, but no autopsy was ever performed. So sad that his common law wife of the time, Pamela Courson died just three years after he did of a heroin overdose. What a tragedy to lose someone so talented as Jim Morrison so early in his life.

Today was another great day in Ohio. I went to Amish country, which was fascinating. The people were so nice and the country is beautiful. I bought a really great white turquoise ring. Then we headed over to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. What an amazing place, right on the lake!





My favorite exhibit of course, had everything to do with Elvis. There were outfits of his, letters from the Colonel, pictures, movie posters, and even one of his purple Cadillacs. It was amazing. I tried to take pics but they almost threw me out! There was also a lot of memorabilia on Jim Morrison that was really interesting. What a great place! The last thing I loved was Johnny Cash's actual tour bus! So great!!!



Then, we headed over to this wonderful area called Crocker Park. Outdoor music, restaurants, and shopping. What more could a girl ask for? Can't wait for tomorrow! Having a blast with my brother and sister-in-law! I just might never leave.
