Next destination: Cincinnati

D and I took a whirlwind trip to Cincinnati a few weeks ago. I really didn’t know what to expect, but ended up really loving both Covington, KY and Cincy, OH. There is this very beautiful mix of old and new, tons of art/murals, and a cool college town vibe without the bars every 10 feet.



Yes, I took a pic of the bathroom. So nice!!!

But first, we had to stop at Buc-ees. Twice. Because who doesn’t need a little more Buc-ees in their life?! 






So I have this thing of taking pics with the name Covington, so we stayed in Covington, KY, and completed my fourth Covington photo :) We found a sunflower farm, beautiful view of Cincinnati across the river and a cool old/new mix of buildings. 




Cincinnati was also very beautiful with murals on every surface. It surprised me how much I liked both cities!! Most everyone was friendly, the city was easy to navigate, and very easy to walk. 


One night we drove to this overlook in KY to watch the lights of Cincinnati and the fireworks from the Reds game. It was breathtaking to watch the lights flip on as dusk approached. Very beautiful and peaceful. 



We took a different route home so we could see new sites. Found this adorable place for lunch in Augusta, KY. It was right on the river and we sat outside on the patio. What a great little find on our travels! 






We came home through West Virginia. Enjoyed the Capital building with its golden dome, more river views and this random overlook on some random backroads we were on. And, of course, tunnels!! 

Such a great whirlwind trip for the weekend. Just love hopping in the truck and taking off somewhere - anywhere! Seeing new places and meeting new people :)
