Well, this year we decided to try something new - a staycation! Normally, we will take a vacation (usually to visit family out of town), but since the economy has taken a toll on our budget, we decided to do a staycation instead and take advantage of some passes that we had won recently (we had one to the water park in Great Wolf Lodge and another to the Cincinnati Nature Center).
While going away has it advantages, the staycation still did provide us with something new: discovering new places to visit in Cincinnati. I had (briefly) visited the Nature Center before, BUT it was only for less than half an hour. This time, we were there for almost three hours and agreed that we would like to go back (we're even considering a membership at some point in the future). We LOVED it there and want to see more. We even got to see a sunset in French Park. A sunset may not seem like a big thing, but if you're so absorbed in your daily life, being able to see a sunset is not always possible. I like having the ability to slow things down (like we did this past week) and do something that we're not always able to do - like seeing a sunset....
