  • The Muskingum County Courthouse in Zanesville #Ohio is dressed in beautiful fall colors. The building was built in 1877 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The courthouse square has memorials to fallen soldiers and police officers and is near the Y Bridge and the Alan Cottrill Sculpture Studio. Next time you pass by Zanesville, hop off the interstate and check out this adorable town. . . . . #ohiofindithere #fallidaysinohio #visitzanesville #traveltagged #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #roadtrip #roadtrippers #travelinspiredliving #letsgo #letsgosomewhere #discoverohio #travelphotography #travelphotooftheday #picoftheday #travel
  • A stop in Zanesville to the Alan Cottrill Sculpture Studio will leave you pleasantly surprised. visitors are welcome to pop inside to explore but if you arrive after hours, you'll discover a street lined with sculptures to marvel over. And don't forget to look up on the roof of the building. You don't want to miss anything. This attraction is part of the newly formed Ohio Art Corridor and makes a fun roadside stop when road tripping through southeastern Ohio.

  • This art installation is the first to be installed along the newly created 144-mile long @theartcorridor. "School of Fish" by artist David Griesmyer swim 20 feet in the air along the Muskingum River. This giant sculpture was created specifically for the Ohio Art Corridor but this outdoor trail incorporates existing pieces found throughout Southeastern Ohio.

  • One of my favorite views in Richland County is the Mount Jeez Overlook which is part of Malabar Farm State Park. I've been visiting this area since my kids were small. Not only does it offer a great view of the rolling hills and changing leaves, it's also beautiful at sunset. . . . . #fallidaysinohio #fallidays #optoutside #travelphotooftheday #travelinspiredliving #midwestisbest #midwest #midwestmoment #picoftheday #ohiogram #ohiostateparks #malabarfarm #ohiofindithere #ohiogram #discoverohio #instatravel #getoutdoors #exploremore
  • This is my favorite time of the year- when I can throw on a sweatshirt and a pair of boots and hit the trails at one of Ohio's state parks. Did you know that Ohio offers free admission in its state parks? Just one more reason the Buckeye state should be on your #bucketlist. Do you love fall too? 🍁🍂🍃 . . . . #letsgosomewhere #travelphotooftheday #travelusa #traveldeeper #getoutdoors #optoutside #getoutstayout #exploremore #fallidaysinohio #ohiofindithere #ohiodnr #ohiostateparks #torridfashion #discoverohio #malabarfarm #picoftheday #travelstoked #midwestisbest #MWTravel #midwestmoment #midwest #instago #instatravel #ohio #travelinspiredliving #travelwriter #myohioadventure
  • There's no place like home. I love living in Ohio, but I admit that I didn't appreciate my home state very much until I moved and it wasn't my home any longer. You know that saying how absence makes the heart grow stronger? That's how I felt. When I no longer lived here, I missed it. Salt Fork State Park was one of the places I'd missed as I spent quite a bit of time in Salt Fork during my early teenage years.
