The cold, clear waters of Caesar Creek reflecting glints of the winter sun as it flows through the Ordovician limestone and shale gorge making it way to join the Little Miami State and National Scenic River.

The Ohio Renaissance Festival is open on weekends in September and October and is a really fun way to spend a day! There are heaps of neat shops and different busker-type performances and musicians and you can drink mead and eat turkey legs. Of course there is jousting and also a human chess match, Harry Potter style! Many weekends are themed too, including a pirate weekend, Oktoberfest, and Celtic weekend.
Brightly colored orange toadstools highlighted by filtered sun rays were an unexpected and welcome find while hiking on the frigid final day of 2014.

I love the Ohio Ren Faire. Will be back and someday will make it to the Sauerkraut festival.
