Take a look at Myriad Botanical Gardens, right in the heart of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Make sure to see the Crystal Bridge Conservatory!

Take a virtual tour of Riverbanks Zoo and Garden in Columbia, South Carolina! Not my favorite zoo but the beautiful garden is a real treasure.
Take a walk through the Louisville Zoo! This excellent, award-winning zoo is reasonably priced and is doing an excellent job during Covid.
Check out the Jack O’Lantern Spectacular in Louisville, Kentucky, held every year in October. In 2020 it was held as a drive-through.
Take a visit to the beautiful Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens. The mansion is an incredible feat and the gardens are a wonder!
Take a trip (and a drink) to Ponce De Leon’s Fountain of Youth Archeological Park. It’s not much, but it’s a relatively cheap road trip stop.
A visit to the Okefenokee Swamp Park, which is NOT the same as the Okefenokee Swamp Wildlife Refuge (and not nearly as fun.)
A visit to Covid-era Kennedy Space Center, with lots to do (at least until 3:00) but no bus tours. Includes a launch attempt.
Take a ride on the Icon Orlando, or The Wheel at Icon Park, if you want to get fancy. I take a ride at sunset but ultimately judge it overpriced.
