Bibibop Asian Grill is the Asian equivalent of the Chipotle style of dining. A bowl filled with wild purple rice, bean sprouts, sauteed potatoes, chicken, cucumber, lettuce, carrot, daikon, cheese, corn and egg topped with yum yum sauce.

Bacon cheeseburger from Five Guys Burgers and Fries. While it's true this is a fast food/fast-casual chain, it should by no means be lumped in with the Burger Kings and McDonald's of the world. A damn tasty burger with plenty of topping choices for customization.
The Smokehouse Burger from Firebirds Wood Fired Grill in the Polaris area topped with java BBQ sauce, apple-wood smoked bacon, cheddar and red onion with a side of tots. #delicious
First snow of the year. #winterwonders

The second oldest building remaining on The Ohio State University campus, Orton Hall was opened in 1893. It is named after Dr Edward Orton, Sr. who served as Ohio State's first president, OSU Professor of Geology from 1873 to 1899, and Ohio's State Geologist from 1882 until his death in 1899. Orton Hall is built of 40 different Ohio building stones. In the outside walls, these stones are laid in stratigraphic order according to their relative positions in Ohio's bedrock. The only non-indigenous to Ohio stone used is Indiana Limestone to build the front steps. It was chosen because of its high concentration of embedded fossils. The bell tower was dedicated in 1915 and contains 25,000 pounds of bells that can be heard regularly tolling across campus. Encircling the top of the tower are 24 columns with gargoyle-like figures which are restorations of fossil animals.

The setting sun illuminating the trees above the creek inside Glen Echo Ravine. This spot isn't within the bounds of the actual park. It can be reached by a gravel access path behind Lucky's Market. From there, you can head east along the creek bed, through the ravine and end up inside the park.

This pink and white marbled petunia is actually an unintended mutation of what was intended to be a completely pink bloom. The OSU cultivar trials, located at Ohio State University's Chadwick Arboretum and Learning Gardens, are conducted each year in order to evaluate ornamental bedding and container plants. The objective of these trials is to observe the performance of new and recently introduced cultivated plant varieties under environmental conditions typical of central Ohio. Despite their stated scientific and economic purposes, the gardens are beautiful to walk through and photograph. Best of all, they're FREE!
