My recent girls’ weekend to Columbus, Ohio included a short hike at the Scioto Audubon Metro Park. We stopped there on Sunday before driving home. The weather was glorious and the park surprised me with its proximity to downtown, one and one-half miles!
First, we had a buffet breakfast that was included with the room. The hotel, “The Residence Inn by Marriott“, I found to be stylish, including the lobby and dining room. The ceiling must have been 25 foot high..
We walked to the park, which boasts an outdoor climbing wall!
I’ve climbed one on a Mediterranean cruise and found it quite exhilarating!
The grounds were beautiful! Autumn always fills me with an extra spark of energy! Most likely it’s the cooler weather and dynamic colors!
We probably walked less than a mile, but the views were nice!
I hope you’re enjoying the outdoors this autumn! That’s a wrap for the girls’ weekend. We did and saw a lot in two days!!
