There’s nothing more satisfying or freeing than taking the time to study the landscape while driving along a country road. When I travel to Columbus for recreation, I like to avoid the four lane raceway we call Route 23 in favor of the slower paced Route 104.

It isn’t fun to drive at busier times of the day thanks to farm equipment and school buses but it’s pure bliss early on a Saturday morning. It was especially quiet last weekend so I was able to pull over for some pictures.

This is one of my favorites from that morning. The stark skeleton trees looked so pretty against the early morning sky and you know how I like old barn wood!

Come back tomorrow and we’ll go on a tour of the Ohio Statehouse!
