What I LOVE about Short North's GALLERY HOP!

What I LOVE about Short North's GALLERY HOP!

At least every other month my family plus friends attends the 1st Saturday night of the month's GALLERY HOP in the Short North! A few of my favorite memories:

  • Within five seconds of the new lights up High St there were two rear-enders right in front of us!
  • Where else can I see piercings and tats in places I didn't know could be altered!
  • Love watching the clothes and the hair combos!
  • Love the couple combos! There really is no judgement here. I love one and all. Sometimes it's just funny when One and All combine ;-)
  • Art that always offends, delights, surprises, woos, scares,titillates and moves me!
  • Always see many, many friends, clients and make new friends, too!
  • A GREAT meal! There are so many wonderful places to eat delicious food in the Short North! A favorite of ours is Mac's! It was a warm meal for our 2nd date on a cold night in January 2005! 
  • Love the cupcakes as a late night snack!
  • Love the music playing from every other street corner!
  • Love the electricity in the air, the happy sounds of laughter, and folks moving at a brisk pace!
  • So many smells; Antiques, beer, perfume, body odor, flowers, cigars, dogs, steaks...
  • LOVE all the retro furniture & nick knacks that remind me of passed loved ones!
  • We always find something to love and purchase from one of the retailers in the Short North. Last month it was bamboo toaster tongs and a pretty, glass ring holder!
Next month the plan is to thoroughly check out the new restaurant, park, fountains and swings along Columbus' Scioto Mile! I'll let you know what I think! Maybe we'll run into each other at the Circus May 10-13 or at the Asian Festival May 26-28! Happy Hopping! Real Estate Success, Darla ;-)
