Pretty good ribs. Cornbread is good. I heard they add vanilla pudding mix to them. Not confirmed but they are definitely sweet and moist. They have Ohio beers.

These are really good donuts. She puts them out very early and sells until they are gone, which is fast! Get there early and fuel your hike.

Nice winery. The wine flights come on great rod irons stands. The menu is more appetizer style. There is generally a food truck outside for heartier dishes

This is a local, unassuming favorite. We like to hike down south and go to the cafe for a big breakfast. Lunch menu has some local favorite stuff. Once it was fried green tomatoes. The decor is dated and quite casual atmosphere.

Sightseeing
No one seems to know about this cute park. The trails are moderate intensity. Well maintained and quiet.

It's quite a hike to the vista but worth it. There are urban legends that this was the site/scene for John Wayne's moving "The Searchers." My grandpa was half Cherokee. I don't think he let the truth get in the way of a good story for the kids.

There are some neat shops and lots of antiques/flea market feel. Outside vendors are pretty varied. There is one booth that's consistent. A farmer selling local produce

Pet care
I have been using Frankie for over a year. She takes good care of my dogs and her rates are great. I put her on here because sometimes pets on vacation need a bath.
