An old wooden sign warning about the lowhead dam just down stream. There are newer looking metal signs. The lichen encrusted sign reads "Danger, Dam Ahead. Portage at Marker". This can be found east of Antrim lake on the western shore of the river, along the trails that snake through the wooded area of the park. #urbanjungle

This pink and white marbled petunia is actually an unintended mutation of what was intended to be a completely pink bloom. The OSU cultivar trials, located at Ohio State University's Chadwick Arboretum and Learning Gardens, are conducted each year in order to evaluate ornamental bedding and container plants. The objective of these trials is to observe the performance of new and recently introduced cultivated plant varieties under environmental conditions typical of central Ohio. Despite their stated scientific and economic purposes, the gardens are beautiful to walk through and photograph. Best of all, they're FREE!

On the north side of Ohio Stadium, also known as the Horse Shoe, there's a huge archway with a beautiful mosaic and pictures of iconic players. Though I've been to the 'Shoe many times, it was only recently that I discovered the flowers at the top of the arch. #UrbanJungle
