Happy Monday! Chelsea here.

It's finally February, my friends. I know that a small percentage of you will be asking this question, so I'm going to go ahead and answer it for you right off the bat. Why are we already talking about Valentine's Day? The answer is pretty simple: the best things around the city require a little pre-planning, and I want you all to know about them before it's too late to make a reservation. We're kicking it off with some less-expected date ideas, so if you're just looking for something more exciting than dinner and movie, this is the list for you.

I've talked here before about how much I enjoy

Columbus History 🦍

I also recently enjoyed a look back at this major piece of Columbus history: Bongo the patriarch of Columbus Zoo gorillas. Bongo was Colo's mate (another Columbus Zoo legend) and showed late in life that "a silverback could raise a baby gorilla alone."
