I haven't done one of these in awhile, but it looks like fun.

Imagine you’ve made a connection with another blogger who lives in a completely different part of the world than you do. This blogger is about to take a trip and the connection you’ve made is so strong that she is going to make your house one stop on her trip. (Yay!) Unfortunately she can only stay at your place for 24 hours (boo!), but she’d like to see some nearby sights while visiting with you.Keeping in mind that time is quite limited so you have to stick pretty close to home (although not necessarily right IN your town - just anyplace you could go as a day trip), try looking around you with the eyes of someone who has never seen your area and tell us some things you’d share with…A Visitor to Your Hometown

1. Your visitor wants to see something historical. Where would you take her and why? In my current city, there is a little village of historical houses: log cabin, victorian, a school house. Some have antique furniture and quilts on display. The town where I grew up has a refurbished town square with cute shops, incl. a quilt shop and a bead shop that are both fun to browse (and buy, of course!)

2. She wants to see something hysterical…well, mildly amusing anyway. Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is just around the corner and is quirky to me!

3. She wants to take some beautiful and/or interesting photos to fill her albums when she gets home. Where would you take her? I live right in the Cleveland Metroparks. The Art museum is also pretty awesome.

4. She’d like to buy a souvenir that will remind her of your area every time she sees it. What would you suggest and where would you go to get it? Good question! I'm not really sure. I may edit later.

5. Wow, it’s been a long day and you’re both ready for a snack, or maybe even a meal. Where would you take her to really get the flavor of your area? The Brew Kettle is a local place where you can brew your own beer, root beer and ale, but the food is also really good.
