Hocking Hills revisited

So this weekend J and I returned to the Hocking Hills area of Ohio. This trip, the weather was much colder and we went for the weekend and not just the day. We also left the dog at home. Good idea! We stayed in the MacBeth croft at Glenlaurel. It was a beautiful place to stay with great food and welcoming staff. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a romantic weekend away. It was nice that we were able to get it all there - dinner, breakfast, massages, etc. It was nice not to have to worry about finding dinner or anything like that. Very nice.

Another great part of our weekend, and the primary reason we wanted to go back to Hocking Hills was the Hocking Hills Canopy ToursThey were more fun than we expected. Our guides Ben and Troy were fun. I even temped to go without hands, eyes closed and spinning around. This is all big for me who can sometimes be a bit of a "fraidy" as J likes to call me. Needless to say, we will be making another trip back in the spring when they reopen for next season. Its only an hour from our house, so yet another excuse for anyone who wants to visit us in sunny, funny Ohio! Enjoy for pictures from our fun:

Memorial Day Weekend - Day 2 - Hocking Hills

So today we went to Hocking Hills. The hour drive takes you through the farm country of Ohio. You see silos, cows, horses, etc. Once there though, we were in the middle of forests. There aren't tons of words to describe this place but beautiful. I am sure these pictures don't describe the place, but we'll give them a try:

And that ends the day. J just came in from playing cornhole with our neighbors, its 9:30 and we will figure out what to do for dinner or if we are doing dinner at all?
