So, hubby and I took a short overnight trip to see the Titanic Exhibit at COSI in Columbus Ohio. That was fine, except for the crowds of out-of-control children swarming the place. Fortunately the Titanic area didn't have many little kids. We stayed overnight in a downtown hotel, had a nice meal at a German restaurant. I recommend the traveling Titanic exhibit, very sobering and interesting.
The next day we planned to drive home via a little town that was supposed to have lots of little antique shops, thrift type shops, etc. It's about an hour north-west of Columbus. So we make our way there, and the "lots of shops" turns out to be 2 that were actually open, and 4-6 that were not. The public rest-room was a porta-potty, sitting in the parking lot of one of the closed shops. It was 90+ degrees outside, no way I was getting in that porta-potty. The 2 shops that were open had signs saying no customer rest rooms. The one pizza shop didn't open until 5 p.m.
We had even made a point of going on a Thursday since their web page said many of the shops are closed on Tuesday & Wednesday.
We ended up using the rest rooms in the tiny public library, where a used book sale was happening. So I bought a book, since it seemed like the thing to do, and we left.
So not really rant worthy, but a disappointment.
