2025 Thursday Doors: 12 June — Doors at Daniel Stowe Conservancy (Pt 1)

Shed Door in Woods

Coleman and I went to the Daniel Stowe Conservancy to investigate all their new upgrades and additions to what was once known as the Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens (DSBG). Along with the name change, many improvements, upgrades, and additions were added to DSBG.

The Farmhouse Garden Center and The Trailhead Store are just two of the many new developments on the grounds of the Daniel Stowe Conservancy. [I’ll discuss more on these facilities on another later post.] There is also an addition of a Dog Park, additional trails and connecting trails encompassing approximately eight plus (8+) miles of hiking trails on Stowe Property.

Coleman and I began our hiking adventure from The Trailhead Store. We hiked past an extra small waterfall pond, by the Dog Park and around the Big Pond Loop and then crossed the road to continue hiking on the Carolina Thread Trail.

While walking/hiking on the Conservancy property you’ll encounter some concrete paths, crushed concrete trails, natural trails filled with rocks, roots, rises, falls, switchbacks and changes in elevation which inhabits the feeling of adventure.

It was while hiking along the Carolina Thread Trail portion that we noticed a wooden Shed standing amongst the Trees. I’m not sure what the Shed was once used for, but found it interesting to be almost in the middle of nowhere.

The Shed in the Woods
A closer look at the Shed

No, we didn’t attempt to go inside the Shed. We only glimpsed a look at it from the trail … no off trail wandering for a closer look. No need when I could zoom in for a better view.

2025 Thursday Doors: 05 June — Center Doors

The John Gilbert Reese Center

Conference and Event Facility

On the Campus of Central Ohio Technical College (COTC) which is affiliated with The Ohio State University at Newark, Ohio.

The John Gilbert Reese Center is an ideal venue for your event or concert offering unparalleled, customized service in concert with state-of-the art technology. It is also an excellent location to hold board meetings or receptions regardless of whether you are planning for five (5) or Five Hundred (500) guests. The Reese Center is conveniently located in the scenic rolling hills of central Ohio and is a short drive from Port Columbus International Airport and just minutes away from world-class accommodations.

My daughter and I visited the COTC campus and The John Gilbert Reese Center back in April of 2012 when we were in the area visiting some of our cousins who live in the area. It is a beautiful campus and area to visit. The campus is a short drive from The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.

Relaxing … you may relax inside The Boathouse and enjoy the air conditioning while having a soft drink, beer, and/or snack. Or you may sit and relax outdoors around a picnic table.

Jam at the Dam listen to fantastic live music at one of the Catawba Riverkeeper’s live outdoor events such as once held last weekend while the Goat Island Games were being played. [Coleman and I missed this live music event, but we do listen to their live music shows at Confluence which is run by the Catawba Riverkeeper.]
