Woolly Worms Predicts Winter ?

Did you know that a lot of people use Woolly Worms to predict the winter? In Ohio, you can find them most places outside

If they are ALL White that means a very snowy winter and can lead to a really bad winter

If they are ALL Black that also means a lot of snow and a bad winter

The more Orange the less snow we will have.

For Instance, let’s say it’s orange on the left side but black on the rest of the woolly worm. That means we will have a low start to winter at the beginning but it will be bad in the middle and end.

My 3 Favorite Cities I have been to

( Hillsboro is NOT on this list because I live here )

1. ZANESVILLE, OH

My family comes to the city every year and we have our reasons. First, they have the nicest Holiday inn Express to spend the night. Next, you can’t forget Tom’s Icecream Bowl. We love the old-fashioned Peanuts they serve and the atmosphere and the sundaes are massive. They also have a very nice mall called Colony Square Mall to look around. They also have a very nice Antique store called Clossman’s Antiques. Very nice Antique store. We love the Zanesville Pottery Inc store right off of I-70. This is my favorite city to come to.

2. Cambridge, OH

We spent the night at Microtel. Very nice Hotel. We went to The National Museum of Cambridge Glass. This fantastic museum has all sorts of Cambridge glass. We ate at the most delicious Greek restaurant called The Forum. Absolutely amazing. We also got to visit the Mosser Glass store. It was amazing. We also visited the Country Bits store it had many great items. I highly recommend going to that store.

3. Berlin, OH

I love this small Amish town. When we travel here we stay at the Inn at the Amish Door. We always eat at the restaurant right next door. We love all the small shops in Berlin. We also love Boyd and Wurthmann. It is always delicious. We like the Berlin Village Antique Mall it is such a fun antique store. We also visited the Christmas store Tis the Season. Fantastic Christmas Store. We also love the Amish thrift stores they are great stores. I highly recommend this small town.
