Our Weekend, Part 1

Our weekend in Columbus, OH, USA began with a trip to the Short North area, a.k.a. “The Art and Soul of Columbus.” All up and down the street, which is only a few blocks and borders on the campus of Ohio State University, were small art galleries, unique shoppes, fab restaurants, and even a Segway showroom! I, personally, had never seen a Segway showroom. It was awesome! (lol) There was even a Posh Pets Boutique! Yes, dogs were EVERYWHERE in the Short North area, as well as every ethnic group, gays/lesbians, college students, and a lot of sort of strange people who may have been pledging with fraternities/sororities, but may have been just weird. Ah well, different strokes I say! The first weekend of each month is “Gallery Hop” when all the little galleries and shops stay open extra late. We eventually ate at a place called “Union Cafe“ The food was excellent and we ate outside on their deck which overlooked the street. All along the street is valet parking only. The cars parked there were mostly high-end cars like Ferrari, Lotus, Porsche, and a lot I can’t even remember. It was brilliant fun to look at them, the dogs, the odd activities meant to amaze and fascinate, and mostly the people themselves. Our friend, who drove us there got a parking ticket for $30 but I believe it was worth it!
