Welcome to August! Chelsea here.

We did it, guys. Somehow, we survived July without melting entirely. Well done! Now that we're all feeling good about ourselves, let's chat about something cool. A new boutique hotel is open downtown. I got to take a tour and let me tell you, folks, it's seriously stunning. The attention to detail, the thoughtfulness when it comes to guest experience, and the vibe in general totally blew me away. If you've got a staycation coming up, I highly recommend heading to the Canopy by Hilton.

Columbus has become quite the craft beer city, and I'm not even the slightest bit mad about it. You can never have too many places to grab a beer, after all. Wetstone Beer Co. is the latest addition to the C-bus beer fam, and they've got some big plans in store.

From hot air balloon rides to downtown wine festivals to several different food festivals, August in Columbus is going to be very, very exciting. I'm so ready.
