I wll be goning back this summer and next winter also (with ever one wearing grisons)
We just had boots on the the trails where icy in some areas, the wife took a pretty good fall and hurt her hip, she was ok but is very stiff and sore today.

Ask cave, old man, stone house, rocky boot outlet ( spent a few buck there 1/2 off).

To end the day Pizza crossing. Again the OC suggestion was perfect...

Glad you enjoyed my stomping grounds Belly. Canoing the Hocking River is a good time in the summer.

It used to be normal for me to see 25 deer on the bus ride home from school on any given day.

Belly, I told you it would be slippery.

Winter. Snow. Ice. I don't think he would have figured it out on his own. :D

I didn't expect that much ice on the trail.... I can handle slippery but the ice was very difficult in some areas...

Good for you. I tried to impose that rule and, well, it didnt work. There is something wrong when people flip out when they cannot get service and use their phones.
Went to Cumberland Falls when the Moonbow weekend two summers ago. Pretty nice place and to see the amount of kids completely ignoring the goings around them was disgusting. There was a group of 15-20 HS ageds kids by us one evening. They were behind us and at one poing I was like 'wow, these kids are well behaved. QUiet and such. Then i turned around and every one of them has their heads buried into a phone.

Yellow Springs. Go hiking in Glenn Helen and work over to Clifton Gorge. Lots of cool little shops to check out in YS too. Eat lunch at Winds Cafe or Young's Dairy.
