The weather today turned out to be much better than predicted. We went for a hike in High Bank Park – part of the Central Ohio Metro Parks system. It is a beautiful park with great trials that are wide and well maintained. A cicada flew into me as I was entering the trail and the sound of the cicadas was apparent. I wanted to see and hear them this year and I hope to be around to hear them again in 17 years.
We then went into Columbus and saw some beautiful old architecture in Short North around Goodale Park and I really appreciated the twin elephant water fountains in the park.
Columbus is a really nice city which is hard for me to say – growing up a Hawkeye fan. The Buckeyes always seemed too aggressive for my taste back in the days of Woody.
I am sharing this bicycle windmill in hopes it is good luck for less rain than is predicted tomorrow for the Yakkers bike ride. This is group of women from this area who have been getting together to cycle or hike on Wednesdays for many years and I look forward to joining them. Fingers crossed.
