Happy Friday! Chelsea, here.

Have you made your weekend plans yet? I want to make it to a ton of stuff around the city, so here's hoping I don't run out of steam. There is so much happening, from exotic car shows to home and garden tours, It's so hard to narrow it all down. But the main event on my agenda this weekend is Comfest. It's my favorite festival in Columbus and I look forward to it each year. Cross your fingers that the rain gets out of town early!
