Lake Loramie State Park #30Places30Days

May 20, 2017 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

Can you believe that we have lived within 25 minutes of Lake Loramie State Park beach and have never been to the beach? My husband has been to Lake Loramie State Park with an uncle to fish and never even saw the beach. We even camped at the camp ground when Big Red was 13 months old! I am so glad that the #30Places30Days local travel challenge has gotten us to explore fun things to do in and around our county!Lake Loramie State Park walking to beach

We headed off to Lake Loramie State Park to check out the beach. The weather was over 80 degrees but we weren’t sure if it would be “open” or if the beach area would be fenced off and closed. To our surprise and the children’s dismay the beach was open and not fenced and accessible year round!

36 Skate Club Piqua, Ohio #30Places30Days

May 18, 2017 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

We live within 30 miles of 3 skating clubs: Skateworld of  Vandalia, Rolling Hills Skate Club and 36 Skate Club but the closest is 36 Skate Club. Roller skating ebbs and flows in how much my children love it or don’t love it. Some of that has to do with how experienced they are and how easy it is to find a good pair of roller skates if we don’t own a pair in their size. We keep an eye out at garage sales for gently used pairs but we don’t always find the sizes that we need!

We usually only skate at 36 Skate Club for my nieces’ birthdays or with the free skate coupons that the kids receive during Summer Reading Club.

Operation Rebirth Boarding Academy St. Paris, Ohio #30Places30Days

May 16, 2017 By Thaleia 1 Comment

One of our favorite places to visit is Operation Rebirth Christian Boarding Academy. I’ve known the directors since elementary school and went to school with the house mother. When I need some time in the country and a good friendly visit I head out to St. Paris!

When I bring my children we often head outside to the barn or pasture to see what animals are on the farm. Part of the philosophy behind Operation Rebirth is to provide life skills and farm training to the boys that come to live there.

Brel-Aire Bowling Alley Piqua, Ohio #30Places30Days

May 15, 2017 By Thaleia 3 Comments

Bowling Alleys have been a great family activity for many generations. I remember growing up and hearing about high school competitive bowling leagues. Since I grew up out in the country we didn’t live as close to a bowling alley as we do now. I hate to admit that my youngest, Lil’ Red has never been bowling.

Alkaline Natural Spring House Vandalia, Ohio #30Places30Days

May 14, 2017 By Thaleia 1 Comment

A few months ago I learned about Artesian Wells and Natural Spring via a travel blogger group on Facebook. Since my interest was peaked I figured I would search to see if one was within a day trip of our house. Low and behold there was a natural spring within a short drive of my house right in Vandalia. I knew the street name Alkaline Spring but never thought about why the street was named.Alkaline Natural Spring Vandalia, Ohio

Princess and I were just up the road getting our van repaired when I realized how close we were to Alkaline Springs and zipped down the road for a visit. We knew that we might not be able to see anything as the museum complex wasn’t technically open. We were in luck!  A handful of volunteers were on site working on landscaping and gardening.
