Hello Friday! Chelsea here.

I think one of the things that we get really spoiled by living here in Ohio has to be our access to excellent leaf-peeping spots. There’s something so wonderful about going out into nature with the sole intention of being totally wowed by it. It makes me appreciate how beautiful our state can really be. I love to see all of the bright colors dotting the horizon, and here are some of my favorite places to see just that. Have a good weekend, Columbus, and keep an eye out for leaf-peeping opportunities!
