White Oak Inn, Danville Ohio – Romantic Getaway
June 30, 2010 | by Diana
I have been incommunicado these last few days because yesterday was my anniversary. My husband and I took an extended weekend to go away for our 23rd wedding anniversary.

I have never stayed in a Bed & Breakfast before because I like being alone with my husband, and the idea of being in close quarters wasn’t appealing. The White Oak Inn has guest rooms in the in, plus a guest house, and also cabins.

North Market, Columbus Tour – My Impressions

Dave is very personable and seemed to be a go to kind of guy that all the market owners and workers would call out to and let know they needed something, or had something nice to share with him.
