One of my absolute favorite things about Dayton is the shear abundance of hiking trails. So if you want to know what's around, here are a few of my favorite places for a good hike!

This past weekend, I was able to spend some time at one of my favorite homes in Dayton; the Patterson Homestead.  Currently owned by Dayton History, it is held open to the public for tours, while also sponsoring the Carillon Park Concert Band at the gazebo.  As a volunteer, I had a backstage pass to see every room in the house and learned so much more about its history.
