The view from the top of Big Lyons Falls Summer is quickly winding to a close. One more month and the kids will be heading back to school and it won’t be long before cooler temperatures set in and another year is behind us. Now is the time to plan a vacation that won’t break…
Worden’s Ledges located on the Hinckley Reservation are part of Cleveland Metroparks and are just over an hour drive from my home and yet, until recently, I’d never heard of this hiking trail. With my love of roadside attractions and everything fun and quirky, I thought this would be the perfect destination for my husband and I to…
While we tend not to search out all the commercial attractions when we’re traveling- I have to admit, sometimes we really enjoy going with the flow and following the masses en route to the local tourist traps. But more likely, you’ll find us at totally out-of-the-way quirky roadside attractions in Alabama that are off the…
If activities revolving around nature are something that you enjoy during your vacations, then Niagara County is a fantastic place to stay. I’ve visited in the past and enjoyed a stay in a wonderful four star Niagara Falls hotel which was ideally positioned for making the most of nature in this beautiful area. My husband and…
Once part of the roadway leading to Cedar Point Amusement Park, visitors can walk along what was one of the first hard surfaced roads east of the Mississippi. The easy paved trail now leads visitors to one of the last undeveloped stretches of shoreline in the Sandusky Bay area. The nature preserve has four miles of easy…

When I asked my daughter if she was interested in joining me on a press trip featuring the Ohio State Park Lodges, she had no idea how much fun it would be, and neither did I. We joined bloggers from around the world for a four night, five day tour of three of Ohio’s State…
Mohican State Park is one of my family’s favorite warm weather attractions in North Central Ohio. When my kids were younger, we’d make frequent trips to the state park to view the Clear Fork Gorge Overlook, climb the stairs of the Fire Tower and hike two of our favorite trails; Big Lyons Falls and Pleasant…
This past month, my family found ourselves in Bowling Green to explore Kentucky’s only underground boat tour. I’m not a stranger to Kentucky’s Cave Country. When my husband and I were married nearly 22 years ago, we spent part of our honeymoon in the area. We had hoped to tour Mammoth Cave National Park, but…
I’ve learned an important lesson while traveling with my family over the years. Forgive and forget- quickly. Just because you’re experiencing a rough patch, it doesn’t mean that things won’t smooth out down the road. This road trip was no different. I woke up with a choice. I could continue to be disappointed because things…
Viewing the gently rolling hillside just outside Cumberland, in Southeastern Ohio, it’s hard to imagine that this land was once barren after years of strip mining by the Big Muskie. Today nearly 10,000 acres of reclaimed land is known as The Wilds, one of the largest wildlife conservation centers in the world. Unlike a zoo,…
