Happy Monday, everybody! It's Chelsea.

I hope you all had an absolutely fabulous weekend. If you're already looking for something to do next weekend, let me help you out. Nothing quite says "summer fun" like hopping in an inner tube and floating down a river, right? Hocking Hills Adventures offers a scenic, 4.5-hour float through the most beautiful countryside in Ohio. It's a day trip perfect for the whole family. πŸ’¦

Monday Weather 🌑Mostly sunny and 85. 🌀

Navigator Originals βœοΈParsons North Brewing Company To Open This FallAs a South Ender and person who lives less than a block from Parsons Ave., I have to admit that I'm pretty darn excited about this. Would you all hate me if we just fast forward to Fall? πŸΊπŸ»Columbus Food & Wine Festival To Takeover Battelle Riverfront Park This WeekendA glass of wine, a beautiful view of the city, and some delicious food.

Around Town 🏘I'm loving this series from 614 called "Strip Mall Surprise" that highlights strip mall eateries around Columbus. This edition looks at North High Street restaurant Over The Counter - I love the soda fountain concept and I think you will too.
