Yesterday took me to Marietta, Ohio to tour an allegedly haunted historic home. I'm well familiar with this city but like to visit a few times a year to do something new while revisiting favorite spots. It is always worth the trip.
The self guided tour at the Anchorage was worth the $10 admission. Check back this week for a full report.
Lunch was at Marietta Brewing Company where my fish sandwich was piping hot and delicious. The service and atmosphere are great too.
There are some new shops that I hadn't been in and I was pleased to see that one favorite local shop called Wit and Whimzy has expanded. The sign out front read "You know you're curious. Stop in and see us!" I was, so I did.
This image comes from McKenna's Market, a small regional chain with made to order sandwiches and a host of fun baked goods, snacks and more.
I sat in the shade and attempted to keep up with a melting ice cream cone while I admired the patriotic fervor of this town, the first permanent settlement in the Northwest Territory.
I also admired the way the community is proactive in creating things to do and in simply keeping up appearances. All of the businesses seem to do their part, recognizing that they have to step up and contribute if they wish to see things happen.
It was too hot and humid to go far on foot but I still have a few things to share from this day. Check back!
