I really enjoy Nashville IN in Brown County. Brown County State Park is really nice to stay at the lodge, go camping, hiking, horseback riding and more. There are hotels and bed and breakfast places and great shops in town. Beautiful place in the fall.

Metamora, IN should be on the list. Pretty close to Dayton and it’s just a really nice place to visit.

Murphin Ridge Inn in Adams County (West Union) is a great weekend getaway. A relaxing area, trails to hike, quiet, and SUPERB food. With a few extra coins, try a cabin; you will love it.

All of these are fun, but Hocking Hills is such a scenic and quiet area. For a true getaway, it’s the best.

Go back to the totally awesome '80s this weekend [things to do]

80s fashionista

"Back to the '80s," an area premiere, opens Friday, Nov. 6, for three weekends in Kettering. The retro show is an account of 1989 high school senior class, as recalled by a man in his 30s. Unrequited love, popularity (and its opposite), a debate about CDs replacing cassette tapes, student elections, a stolen speech, new kids in school and an English teacher in a magazine centerfold are among the plot lines. There are 20 songs, including "Footloose," "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" and "You Give Love a Bad Name." Like, totally awesome! » More
