From The Heart Of Ohio

Not So Wild In The Heart

Although we do not normally make any New Year resolutions, we must admit that we did this year, as there are times in life when we tend not to make the best choices, leaving us needing to make some changes.

And such seems to be the case when we chose the name “From the Wilds of Ohio” for our current writings.  Since doing so, we have discovered there is actually a place in Cumberland, Ohio, which is called “The Wilds.”

From their website we learned that “The Wilds is a private, non-profit conservation center located on nearly 10,000 acres of reclaimed mine land in rural southeastern Ohio. It was created as the conservation center of the future by a group of civic leaders, political leaders and zoo professionals who believed that a serious scientific approach was required to find solutions to environmental concerns.”

We understand, from those who have visited The Wilds, that it is well worth the trip.
