Jeremy and I decided to make a drive out of Columbus for the day on Sunday and we went to an outdoor park called Hocking Hills. First of all, most of our friends said that we were in for a 1.5 hour drive. It took nowhere near that! Jeremy and I left and, with stopping for gas and breakfast, drove for 45 minutes. That is not a bad drive at all!
*I have to stop and realize that most of the people we were asking are used to bitching about driving from one side of town to the next, so we should have known better than to trust their judgement, but alas, we did.*
So, we get down there and start walking around. We equate the place to Petit Jean, which is back home in Arkansas. It was a beautiful walk, and it was a very beautiful day. We couldn't have asked for a better day to walk around.
We were walking the 4 mile or so trail when we got to the half way point and decided to turn back. We had noticed several people walking while we were on the trail and it really didn't bother us to turn around. So, we get back, taking a different route back up to the parking lot. After we get to the parking lot, we go and drive to the Cedar Falls area, which we would have walked to originally. On the way there, we see most of the people either at the falls or on their way back to the spot we started. We felt sorry for them that they had to walk back as we drove off, but we were happy to be heading to go eat lunch. :)
All in all, it was a great afternoon. We spent the rest of the day reading books at Goodale Park and watching "The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life of Ethan Green" over at Marshall's house.
Good hike, good scenery, good friends, and good food... what better way to spend the day!
