So What’s on Tap for Valentine’s Day?
Hopefully by now, you've gotten all the 'necessaries' for your sweetie for Valentine's Day. Something chocolate. A mushy card. Maybe even reservations for a nice dinner. Those are all great...especially the chocolate and more specifically, those little heart-shaped Snickers...I digress but that's what happens when chocolate enters the conversation, but how about making plans to do something special together. Making a memory. Going out for dinner is a wonderful idea, but how about making it a murder mystery dinner? The folks with Sherlock's Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre have a brand new production going on at the Columbus Marriott and it's called "Sherlock's An Invitation to Murder" and if you've never been to a dinner like this, it's a hoot! You might even be the one "who dunnit!" You get a fabulous meal, a wonderul show during dinner and you'll be talking about this for many Valentine's to come.
Or how about taking in a concert with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra? Now, before you start with excuses like "I don't know anything about classical music" or "That kind of music just isn't my cup of tea...I'm more of a Country fan", then tomorrow night's event might be right up your alley! This one is titled "Music City Hit Makers" and it truly can be defined as 'where country meets the symphony.' It'll feature the artists who wrote the hit songs made famous by country artists like Lady Antebellum, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Martina McBride, Kelly Clarkson, and many others. So do something a little out of the norm and surprise your Valentine with tickets!
If you want to get outdoors and enjoy this short window of nice weather, take an adventure on the Blue Heron Zip Line this weekend because if you go in groups of two or more, your Valentine gets to zip for free! (Just make sure you make reservations.) Or put on your hiking shoes and take the short trip to Providence Canyon State Park for their guided Geology Hike on Saturday. This is a great time of year to see the canyons so make sure to bring your camera and binoculars.
Cards, candy and cuddling are nice, but it's the adventures you share that make life together special!
