Circleville, OH · Sun, 19 Apr 2026. 10am
It's Sunday morning and we're doing our usual morning routine so far on this Ohio trip: sleeping in a bit then lingering over a simple breakfast before heading out for a few hikes.
"Hey, what happened to all of last night?" you may wonder. "Like, after you visited that amazing pencil sharpener museum?"
Nothing. The answer is nothing happened since approximately 4pm yesterday. 🤣
All we did was drive home to Circleville, enter our hotel room, lock the door behind us, and veg the whole evening. We didn't even go out for dinner. Partly that's because we weren't too hungry, having eaten a late lunch at The Feed. And partly it's because we were tired and lazy and still had some food left over from our grocery run Friday evening. We nibbled on what we still had and called it dinner-enough.
Still, I hate get backlogged. It makes it hard for readers to follow the tempo of the trip. Like, if blogs about hikes and traveling curiosities are spread over 3 days, are you really going to think, "Wow, that was one busy day"?
So what I'm going to do with the next few days worth of blogs is switch to posting daily summaries first. I'll come back around later in the week with details (and pictures!) from individual hikes. I expect it'll take me until Sunday to catch up on all those. But hopefully, at least, I'll catch up on the daily summaries to the point that I'll post my "It's Wednesday night and we're home from Ohio!" blog no later than Thursday morning. 🤣 Maybe I'll even squeeze it out Wednesday night.

Blog Backlog; Change of Tempo
It seems surprising that for how all our evenings thus far have been "And then nothing happened" I'm still running behind by what looks like 3 days already in blogging about this trip. We're vegging in the evenings after having busy days, I remind myself. This blogging backlog happens because we're doing a lot of stuff I enjoy writing about. And because I rate-limit myself at 3 posts/day so as not to overwhelm people's feeds.Still, I hate get backlogged. It makes it hard for readers to follow the tempo of the trip.
