Hello Wednesday! Chelsea here.

Columbus is really something - a smart city where we can all let our inner nerd show. This place is packed with all sorts of awesome learning adventures. Imagine hitting up classic spots like COSI or stumbling upon these hidden spots with ancient fossils – it's a blast to learn while you're having fun in Columbus. And it's not just for kids; whether you're a teen or an adult, there's no age limit to picking up something new.

Lost Mansions Of Columbus: Alfred Kelley Mansion 🏛
I love taking a look back at the palatial homes that once lined the streets of Columbus. We’ve lost so many of these beauties over the years, but this particular site feels sort of cursed. In addition to the mansion, the site was also home to one of the most iconic hotels in Columbus.
