Happy Halloween!! It’s the final weekday of the month and that means LOCAL TOURIST time! If you have any posts about local adventures you went on (your definition of local), then please link up below with myself and Dara from Not In Jersey.
Local Tourist: October 2019
Wednesday, October 9: My sister and I attended a library event in Ohio presented by the Paranormal Investigators of Northern Kentucky (PINK) and it was really fascinating. The first part was a breakdown of what they do and what equipment they use. Then they shared a lot of audio clips and stories from investigations they had done. My sister and I are huge fans of shows like Ghost Hunters and Ghost Adventures, so this was really fascinating to us!
Sunday, October 13: My parents, sister, brother, sister-in-law, nieces, nephew, and I all went to Burger Farm. Some of us had gone last year and really enjoyed it, so it was fun to go back again. They put on a Pumpkin Fest and there is seriously all sorts of things to do. A lot of it is geared toward kids, but not everything! My nieces and nephew all had a blast playing the various games, etc. There’s even a booth where you can pet bunnies and you bet I got in there! They are so soft and adorable. I’m not a warm drink person, but I did enjoy some nice cold apple cider and yummmm! We ended the day by taking the hayride up the hill to the pumpkin patch. Definitely a must see if you live in or around Cincinnati, Ohio!
Saturday, October 19 and Saturday, October 26: On both of these days I attended a couple school craft shows. I love this time of the year because there are always a ton of craft shows at various schools in Kentucky and Ohio. I think homemade items are wonderful – especially as gifts. I didn’t get a ton at the ones I’ve been to already, but I got a couple things to use as gifts. There are more coming up in November and I can’t wait!
October 2019 Local Tourist: Paranormal Investigators, Pumpkin Patches, and More #ontheblog #cincinnati Share on XLet’s Discuss: Do you watch shows like Ghost Hunters? Do you believe in ghosts? How about pumpkin patches and farms – visit any this year? And finally, do you like to attend craft shows?
That talk on ghost hunting sounds interesting! We did the pumpkin patch this month too. I love craft shows, I like to get ideas!
Yay pumpkins! My favourite thing about autumn.
I used to watch Paranormal State, and loved it. Even got to meet Ryan Buell from that show one time. I haven’t been able to get into any of the other ghost shows.
The PINK group sounds intriguing! I love cold apply cider, or apple cider slushies, my favorite!!!
The apple cider at the farm sounds delicious. I love me some apple cider. 🙂
haha, my husband watches “Ghost adventures”, too… that must have been interesting to learn more about their equipment and techniques.
I love fall events, best time of year to explore.
I have to comment on that scarf you have on — LOVE IT!
I watch Ghost Adventures through like five fingers. It creeps me out but it’s so good!
The PINK event sounds so interesting. I have never been to a paranormal investigator event. And, you can’t go wrong with crafts. I used to love to craft, but my garbage hands/wrists and lack of time ending that hobby.
I love craft fairs so much, and like you, I always think best gifts for the holidays. Also that library discussion sounds really interesting—my bestie and I stayed in a haunted hotel and Walked around with those EVP Devices…coolest experience ever!
Oh my gosh, I would have LOVED to have seen PINK! They sound so fascinating and to see them actually bring the stuff they use…
I went to a few outdoor markets and fall festivals this month, but no true pumpkin patches. I’ve never been to a pumpkin patch. K really isn’t into that stuff so hopefully when there’s an excited kid to take along he’ll be more into it and I can convince the whole family to go 😉 Lol! We had a Halloween party on Saturday and have another one this weekend!
Having a kid should definitely be reason enough to enjoy things like pumpkin patches!! 😉
I love going to the pumpkin patch and getting fresh cider. I’m totally not a fan of scary things. I had some friends try to get me to go to a haunted forest and I was like NOPE. Haha!
Its sounds like you have had a wonderful time leading up to Halloween; I’d really liked to have gone to that farm, the fact that it was a family outing is lovely … and as for getting to pet bunnies …
That paranormal discussion would have been so cool to attend. I have stories too…maybe some day.
Happy November now 🙂
Looks like you got to do a lot of fun events this month. The ghost hunter presentation sounds especially interesting.
Oooh! What fun!! I LOVED the Ghost Hunters. I haven’t watched any of their newer episodes… I gotta get back into that!
These posts of yours always remind me that I really need to look into our library’s events. We have a great library system here but I don’t take full advantage of it (other than the books!). The pumpkin farm sounds fun too!
Not gonna lie, I’m a little disappointed that the Burger Farm didn’t have burgers. Lol.
You always find a lot of fun local things to do each season. I’d love to go to a craft show again to just browse and buy a few things, it is always fun to do those around the holidays, too!

That’s a good picture of you. I usually make it to a pumpkin patch but didn’t get to this year. I did go through a night corn maze. Like you, I enjoy attending the craft shows.
