Happy Tuesday! Chelsea here.

Good morning, all. I hope your Tuesday is off to a great start! Have you ever wondered what the coolest outdoor adventure is in Ohio? Because I think I may have just found it. Ohio Caverns, aka the largest caverns in Ohio, is located about an hour northwest of Columbus, and they are totally worth a visit. First of all, it's always 54 degrees in the caverns and they're open year round. Second of all, the caverns are often called "America’s most colorful caverns" and on gray, cloudy winter days, more color sounds pretty amazing. 😎
