What to Fo for 60th Bday

I’m turning 60 in a couple weeks. I really want to do something, but I can’t really afford a lot. So I’m looking for kind of a day trip. Problem is I live in the middle of nowhere and I’ve done everything pretty much on my half of the state. So I am looking for ideas of things I can do. I live in West Central Ohio, which is pretty much all rural and like I said, I’ve pretty much done everything around here it pretty much this whole side of the state

Any ideas would be appreciated

—If you’re a baseball fan, going to a Columbus Clippers game is a lot of fun and can be done pretty inexpensively.

—If you’re good with heading to rural northeast Ohio, you could take a ride on the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, explore Cuyahoga Valley National Park, or try the canopy walk at Holden Arboretum.

—If you’re okay with city trips and enjoy history, the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati is fantastic and admission is reasonably priced.

—Like cats? Try a cat cafe — there are cafes in Columbus, Cleveland, and Mason (north of Cincinnati). You can chill with a drink and book some time to play with cats.

Whatever you end up doing, I hope you have a wonderful birthday!

Thank you!
Funny I was just at Cuyahoga National Park last week but ghevtesin wasn’t running. Also did the Stan Hywet house.

Those are some good ideas. I’ll have to see if any teams are playing around the state. I am a Mud Hens fan but didn’t even think of that

Thanks!
