Hocking Hills


Our last week on the road included a few more stops. We stayed 2 nights in Nelsonville, OH, at Primrose House B&B (circa 1892) just outside of Hocking Hills State Park and Hocking State Forest and Nature Preserve.  We took two days to explored Hocking Hills.  Fun time driving around the curves and turns on back roads between pull overs to explore waterfalls, caves and more.
