Some things you have to do if you are ever in the area: Check out Caesar Creek State Park. They have an amazing visitors center that is a must to check out so you can get your free permit to go fossil hunting! Apparently a few years ago they were carving through the bluff to build a highway and found a 450 million year old preserved ocean floor. They allow people to dig for the fossils and take them home. Needless to say, we stocked up.
Also another beautiful find as well as wonderful hiking and fishing grounds is the Caesar Creek dam.
Also, Fort Ancient State Park and Indian Mounds. They have a very interesting museum with all the history of Ohio Native American tribes. They left behind these incredible mounds. Its just unreal how they were about to build those without the use of any real tools. Just loads of dirt in baskets! Amazing.
The real crown jewel is found just in my grandparent's garage. The soda/beer can airplane hanger. Since my grandpa has retired, he's been trying his hands at different things to pass the time. He stumbled upon this crafty idea from a garage sale and started his own little business. HOW CUTE, RIGHT?!
Anywho, we are back in the Lou and missing them greatly. If anyone is interested in a plane, just let me know and I will relay the message. He sells them for $7 a piece or 2 for $10. He invented the cutest little wooden tools to help cut down the construction time. Such a cute old man :)Have a great night!
The Royal Wedding is tomorrow. Gonna try to hold off on any coverage until I get together with my girls on Saturday and watch the DVR while eating and drinking british inspired goods...
