Okay, Joe is officially the most adorable baby I’ve seen in a long while. I love how vocal he is. I was born and bred in Southwest Ohio. Hocking Hills has always been my favorite place to visit in Ohio. Thank you for sharing your family time with us.
I think Joe is pretty cute, but I'm pretty biased. I'm more familiar with northern Ohio, which is pretty flat and boring much like southern Michigan. I did know that the southern part was more hilly, but I had no idea there was anything this beautiful there.
I love it there. Breathtaking. Perfect lens for the vastness. And the ferns. I laughed with the baby. And I loved his commentary. This video is definitely in the top five!
Wow so beautiful & ancient! You all seemed to have a good time. Joseph is adorable! I LOVED all the little kiddos excited to loudly test the acoustics in various places! Thanks for sharing.
I have been to Hocking Hills several times, both in summer and winter... it is fantastic and I love going back when we can. It's a pretty well kept secret in my opinion. The Hocking Hills zipline tours are pretty fun too. Love it!
Close enough for me. Way too much walking and too much up and down pathways. My legs just couldn't do that. So you just keep making amazing videos for me to dream about seeing . LOL
What a wonderful family outing! That was awesome! Everything was fascinating! The honeycombs were very cool, looked like birdhouses! I believe even Nancy would agree, it was worth every moment even though I would be winded about the quarter of the way through!😂😂 Joe was cuteness overload and looked like he had fun too! Great looking family Rob! Thanks for sharing!
@@MichiganRocks I recognized that Nancy has a knee problem. Probably because I have two knees with problems. One has been replaced. The other I'm waiting to do later. Knee replacement is very painful. But at least no more pain in that one. Bad thing about knee problems it effects your other joints too. I hope her knee gets better.
That looks like an absolutely stunning area to go camping. Another place to add to the ever growing list of places to visit. Take away the people noises and it sounds sooooo peaceful! Thanks for sharing this family adventure!
Nice, I love it here! We've een here a few times, love all the hiking, waterfalls and history. Thank you for all the wonderful memories! It was nice to see! Thanks Rob!
We so enjoyed this video had to watch it twice! As an artist, loved the rocks, water, and caves. Thank you for posting this! I know I will be watching it again.
Glad to see you guys finally got to O -H-I-O and you picked a great area for rock climbing And cool formations. Hope you enjoyed yourselves in the great state of OHIO!! Go Bucks!!
Rob, Nancy and Family.... Rock-ON! I have been to many places in my 80 years but that ranks up with the family locations. Little Joe is a hoot, the joys of babyhood:) I grew up down the Jersey Shore and now live in Ferndale, WA and every day on You Tube see places we missed back East. Seize everyday and every minute, they are so precious! Cheers, Rik Spector
Fantastic family outing - if exhausting! Thanks indeed for bringing us along. I'm so amazed I've never heard of this place, let alone never been here. Some epic geology. I'm imaging some enormous floods ripping through this already weathered and permeable landscape, tearing up the sandstone and carving these huge channels and waterfalls, dragging & tumbling some of those massive boulders & rocky fragments to their new resting places. Would have made interesting homes for ancient peoples. Quite wonderous landscape. Thanks for the experience. Your kids are a credit & lots of fun.
Some of the slump rocks that fell off the cliffs are just huge and amazing. One rock at that last location was like the size of a small house and was all covered in moss.
@@MichiganRocks Must say it looked a fantastic location - I don't understand how I never heard of it. I've been to many more much lesser places! And it's such a fun spot for families - I loved how it said no wading or swimming! Might as well say Don't eat the ICE CREAM!! Really enjoyed seeing it, thanks.
Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us!! I grew up in Ohio and my aunt and uncle took me and my sisters there when we were young. I’ve always cherished that memory, and get to see this place again so many years later in your awesome video.
It’s been awhile since we’ve seen Joeseph. He has really grown ! Wow, I had no idea Ohio had anything like that. That must be southern Ohio as norther Ohio is much the same as northern Indiana and southern Michigan. You can tell the place is well visited as some of the stone steps are worn down from the traffic. Truly spectacular !!! Thanks for sharing Rob.
When I think of Ohio, I always picture the northern, flat part as well. This was in the south, so it's more like Kentucky. Joe has grown a lot since you've seen him. There have been a few requests to see him, so I was happy to get into a video again.
Wow! All of the places you visited are spectacular! Between the cliffs, rocks steps everywhere, the water falls, caves and the greenery, the beauty is unbelievable. What an amazing area. Thank you for sharing this Rob!✌️🤠
Thanks, Rob... Never been to, but so glad you took us along for the tour... Oh, I'm a big 'Michigan Rocks' fan too... We got alotta rocks out here in Northern Colorado, so I think I better get started ;-)
WOW ! What a wonderful place ! I had so much fun watching this beautiful National park with all its wonders , so many waterfalls and caves truly left me in awe of Gods awesome creation ! Joe is so sweet and adorable 💖😘 thank you for taking us along on this amazing trip 💗💐
God just keeps on amazing me. Each spot we went to seemed better than the last. We equally enjoyed Joe. This video was shot a couple weeks ago and now Joe is at our house visiting for the weekend. We're lucky to see so much of him.
@@MichiganRocks Howlovel to have joe with you over the weekend ! I think grand children are God’s precious gifts to grand parent in particular to give them joy in the later years of their lives ! I truly enjoy my 5 grandchildren ( the oldest is 10 and the youngest 4 ) 💗
You have done a amazing job of depicting Hocking Hills. I recently moved from my own piece of heaven, perched on top a hill totally secluded after 27 years. Your videos are a wonderful way of remembering all my years enjoying the grandeur of the hills.. Thank you.. 😊
Such a beautiful place, pictures and video don't do it justice! Spent a few days down there a couple years ago with the family, would highly recommend it!
Really cool. The power of nature and how it transforms the land, I think it is awesome you still go on family vacations. Most kids anymore would rather hang out at home, there is so much to see in this great nation.
Thanks for sharing some of your family vacation! I haven’t been to Hocking Hills since I was 15 yrs old. I think I need to plan a trip there in the near future!
WOWOWOW~! That place is stunning....thank you for the trip~ AND...you sure got your future rock picking partner right there~ He is into rocks~ BIG TIME!
I live in Ohio... (Please don't judge) ;) I've made three trips to Porcupine Mts. State Park on Lake Superior and I think that is one of the most beautiful places I have been!! Glad you enjoyed your visit!
What a nice video. I'm so glad you were able to visit one of the coolest areas in Ohio. We love it there. You should see Old Man's Cave after a good snowfall. It's truly amazing. I have a video of a winter hike there. Wishing you guys safe and happy travels.
Thank you so much for the travelogue. With my handicap, that terrain is not feasible for me, but it was lovely to see and hear the waterfalls and birdsong.
I'm sorry you're not able to get around well. UA-cam does allow you to see some pretty amazing places, even if you can't go yourself. I can walk ok, but I'll never go to some places in far away countries that I can at least see videos of.
Jurassic Park is exactly what I was thinking too. I didn't expect that to be so incredible when we first started out. I can't Imagine anything much more beautiful than the last part of that trail.
I'm 54 and have walked every trail in Hocking Hills many many times. No matter how many times I see Rock House it's a treat. My favorite hike is the upper rim trail at Conkle's Hollow. I'm glad you and your family discovered our hidden gem.
That was an awesome vacation, one of my favorites. We only did one trail at Conkle's Hollow and it seemed to be low, rather than high. Now I want to go back and do the other trail. I couldn't believe that every trail we did was better than the last. I thought the first day was so good that we'd be disappointed by everything after. Boy, was I wrong.
@@MichiganRocks the upper rim trail gets narrow at points, but is very managable. There are a couple of uncovered cliff areas where you can see the whole Hollow and far beyond. If you ever make it back; I highly suggest that trail.
The bird sounds were nice. I couldn't have told you that it was a wood thrush though. My wife and I took summer college classes about four hours away when we were first married. We stayed in the college town, but came home on weekends. Nancy took a bird class that summer and part of it was learning bird calls. On the way home for the weekends, she'd play tapes in the car. The narrator would say something like "This bird says "Tea kettle, tea kettle". Then there would be a recording of a bird going "tweet, tweet". The narrator could always hear something that I couldn't. I guess I'm not fluent in bird.
Wow. Beautiful. I have never heard of it. I’ll have to put it on my bucket list. It looks like you all had a great time. Your legs must have felt like they were going to fall off from all the stairs and walking. Joseph is sure getting big. He looks like a happy baby.
I'll bet! Some places reminded me of some waterfalls around Munising, Michigan. Check out this video to see what I mean: ua-cam.com/video/raY6T-QpQ80/v-deo.html
Looks like a really pretty place!! Thanks for the good share! That Devil's Bathtub is neat. If you all enjoyed that, you may want to consider Red River Gorge in KY. It also happens to be next door to the best agate county in our state. If you haven't already, check both out online, and if you ever plan to visit, message me via one of the Facebook groups, and I can recommend some agate hunt guides.
Absolutely phenomenal! Was at Cades Cove in Tennessee; totally different from this. Can't even begin to compare. You really got some great footage. We are so Blessed to live in such a beautiful country.

What a nice family, really wish the best for all of you.
I love it there. Breathtaking. Perfect lens for the vastness. And the ferns. I laughed with the baby. And I loved his commentary. This video is definitely in the top five!
I love ferns. I have a lot of them in my landscape around my house. Pairing them with rocks makes them even better. Joe was a great little tour guide.
Wow! Thank you for bringing us along! Beautiful family awesome nature!
Thanks for coming, Tracey!
Thank you for taking us along on your family vacation. Absolutely beautiful. Looks like a video game.
It looked like a movie set. Just awesome.
Thanks for sharing your fun.
Wow so beautiful & ancient! You all seemed to have a good time. Joseph is adorable! I LOVED all the little kiddos excited to loudly test the acoustics in various places! Thanks for sharing.
There were lots of kids making noise, but all fun sounds.
Rob, So excited to see you all at Hocking Hills! One of my favorite places on the planet. Magical! Awesome video…Thanks!
Hi Lisa! Magical is a really good word to describe it. My jaw was hanging open most of the time.
I have been to Hocking Hills several times, both in summer and winter... it is fantastic and I love going back when we can. It's a pretty well kept secret in my opinion. The Hocking Hills zipline tours are pretty fun too. Love it!
We didn't get to do the zip line, but that sounds really fun too. Several people said how cool it was in the winter.
That was spectacular. Such beauty and amazement. Looks like you all had a grand time.
I didn't come close to capturing how awesome it is in person.
Close enough for me. Way too much walking and too much up and down pathways. My legs just couldn't do that. So you just keep making amazing videos for me to dream about seeing . LOL

You're welcome, Debra.
Nice, I love it here! We've een here a few times, love all the hiking, waterfalls and history. Thank you for all the wonderful memories! It was nice to see! Thanks Rob!
I can't believe I had never heard of this place before. It's just incredible.
@@MichiganRocks Yeah, my wife and I plan to go back and renew our vows there! We love it!
We so enjoyed this video had to watch it twice! As an artist, loved the rocks, water, and caves. Thank you for posting this! I know I will be watching it again.
I’m not much of an artist, but I loved the same things. Rocks and trees are nice, but when you add water to the picture, it enhances everything.
Thanks for taking me back in time; grew up enjoying Hocking Hills many times through the years. Enjoy your vacation and safe travels; stay well.
We've been back for a week. What an awesome trip.
A friend recently recommended this place. Looks beautiful, thanks for the preview Rob & family ❤️
Friends of ours went here earlier this spring and Nancy decided we should go after seeing their pictures.
I'm from Michigan but live in Ohio. Hocking Hills is amazing!! It's like another world.
It sure is like another world. I had no idea there was anything like that in Ohio.
@@MichiganRocks Normally Ohio is flat flat and more flat!
@@Rivi_Styx That's what I used to think. I have a new perspective now.
It's SE corner of Ohio, almost West Virginia... in any case... beautiful and well worth a visit (or two!)
@@webcompanion I've gone whitewater rafting on the New River in WV a few times. Beautiful there too.
I loved camping here as a kid, it's nice to see that you had fun there
We really, really loved this place. Nancy planned this vacation and did a great job.
And then go in the winter when everything is frozen, absolutely beautiful
I can imagine how pretty that must be.
It is lovely there. Thank you for sharing your family vacation with us.
You have a super family.
God bless and take care.
I do have a great family, I'm very thankful for that.
Beautiful. I like how the young buck is always ahead of everyone else. Kudos to your daughter and son-in-law for carrying the baby the whole way!
We were definitely slowing my son down. He was pretty patient though.
Thank you for sharing with us, this beautiful place and time with your precious family!🙋♀️❤💕!!
You’re welcome, Margaret.
What a beautiful hike. Family together, baby singing, commentaries along the way. Great.
It was a really nice vacation for all of us. We all really had a good time.
Glad to see you guys finally got to O -H-I-O and you picked a great area for rock climbing And cool formations. Hope you enjoyed yourselves in the great state of OHIO!! Go Bucks!!
As you know, I have a hard time saying nice stuff about Ohio, but this spot really is incredible.
My son lives right down the road from there. I’m always finding beautiful rocks. I’m glad you had fun in Ohio.
We had a ball in Ohio. What a beautiful place.
What a wonderful family and they love spending time together.
That was wonderful! What a great place. Beautiful family. Thank you. Suzy
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the video, Suzy!
Rob, Nancy and Family.... Rock-ON!
I have been to many places in my 80 years but that ranks up with the family
locations.
Little Joe is a hoot, the joys of babyhood:)
I grew up down the Jersey Shore and now live in Ferndale, WA and every day on You Tube
see places we missed back East.
Seize everyday and every minute, they are so precious!
Cheers,

There are so many beautiful places that don't get the publicity of places like the Grand Canyon. That's ok, though, it keeps a few people away.
@@MichiganRocks Right!
Wow! The power of water makes a most wonderous Landscape.
Thank you for taking me on holiday with you all, this is a real treat.
Thanks for coming along!

Watched twice...want to go there. Gorgeous...trying to get reservations!
That was a very fun trip.
We are heading to Hocking Hills for the first time. Thank you for the preview. Tell Nancy, I now know to bring an umbrella.
I told her. She laughed. That drippy spot was right after a downpour, so you probably won't need an umbrella unless you go right after a rain too.
It's a beautiful park made visitor friendly without detracting from it's beauty. I'm an Ohioan, and never been there. Thanks for the grand tour.
You're right about the bridges and walkways. They really blended in well and actually enhanced the beauty in some spots. That's pretty rare.
Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us!! I grew up in Ohio and my aunt and uncle took me and my sisters there when we were young. I’ve always cherished that memory, and get to see this place again so many years later in your awesome video.

If you're ever near southern Ohio, Hocking Hills is a worth a stop.
Thanks for taking us along. It's how travel these days
It's better to actually be there, but at least you got a glimpse.
What a wonderful place, thanks for sharing.

You're welcome. I wasn't lying in the title when I said it's one of the most beautiful places I've been.
Such a beautiful place, pictures and video don't do it justice! Spent a few days down there a couple years ago with the family, would highly recommend it!
Video doesn't do it justice either, at least not this one. Definitely the kind of place people should visit if they can.
Wow! What a cool place! Thanks so much for taking us along and sharing😊❤️
You're welcome!
Omygoodness, I can’t believe you wore that shirt here!!! 😆. I go there often. It’s like being in prehistoric times. So glad you enjoyed.
Of course I did!
Really cool. The power of nature and how it transforms the land, I think it is awesome you still go on family vacations. Most kids anymore would rather hang out at home, there is so much to see in this great nation.
We don't get to all go together much anymore, but this one worked out.
Rob thank you very much for the wonderful tour from Ohio! Loved it so very much. Of course the baby was a great part of the video!!!
There were some requests to see more of Joe, so I thought this was a good opportunity to give everyone a peek.
Thanks for sharing some of your family vacation! I haven’t been to Hocking Hills since I was 15 yrs old. I think I need to plan a trip there in the near future!
I think so too. I haven't been to any place that was any prettier.
WOWOWOW~! That place is stunning....thank you for the trip~ AND...you sure got your future rock picking partner right there~ He is into rocks~ BIG TIME!
David and I can't wait to take him out rock hunting. I think it's going to be a year or two though.
@@MichiganRocks Definitely...but look out. That boy is gonna take over the family business! :D
I really enjoyed watching your family outings.
Thanks. We had a really nice time there.
Fabulous adventure and adorable granbaby!

I haven't been up there since our kids were little. We need to go back. Have you been to Hocking Hills?
@@MichiganRocks I was there once, but it was at the beginning of covid and they actually had all the trails closed. I need to go back! Love the video!
@@edcctf That wouldn't be much fun. The trails are one way now. Someone said that was new since COVID, but I'm not sure.
@@MichiganRocks One way on a loop trail would actually make sense... I was highly confused about closing outdoor trails at the time! lol
Very cool Rob, what an amazing place, more amazingly I didn’t see you pickup one rock 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for sharing your family adventures,
Sandstone isn't my favorite rock.
Whoah, I see ancient Tartaria... thank you for showing us..
I had to look that term up. This sure is a beautiful spot, looked like something from a movie.
What a good son helping his mom!
He was very patient with my hiking skills (or lack of them).
Thank you for sharing this best kept secret. I need to add this to my bucket list!
The secret's out now!
What a nice video. I'm so glad you were able to visit one of the coolest areas in Ohio. We love it there. You should see Old Man's Cave after a good snowfall. It's truly amazing. I have a video of a winter hike there. Wishing you guys safe and happy travels.
I'll bet it's nice in fall too. Seems like a place that would be awesome and completely different in every season.
I live about 20 min from there - never take it for granted. It's an amazing place. My son is related to the Conkles.
I really enjoyed Hocking Hills.
great family trip looked like everybody had fun
We did have fun!
very cool! Love hearing the birds in the background. Thanks for the adventure!

Good addition.
Hocking Hills is our families favorite place to visit. It’s so beautiful there.

David looked at how much we had walked on that day on his phone. I think it was only seven miles, although it was a lot of up and down.
Amazing place, breathtaking indeed!
Great family adventure.

See what I get for being on the road for most of May..... I miss great geology!
Beautiful place; we'll have to visit this location someday.
If you don't love this place, there's something wrong with you.
There are no words, that i can conjure up to discribe how tranquil and beautiful that place is. This is how we know GOD loves us.
You're right.
What a beautiful place….and in Ohio!! 🤣jk
Joseph is adorable and gave great commentary on the place, even waving goodbye at the end!
Thx for sharing!
Joe had a few things to say along the way, but never too loudly. He was a well behaved the whole day.
Beautiful spot!! I'd not known about this place before.
Me either. It’s so beautiful that I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of it until now.
Absolutely phenomenal! Was at Cades Cove in Tennessee; totally different from this. Can't even begin to compare. You really got some great footage. We are so Blessed to live in such a beautiful country.
You're right about that! I didn't even think Ohio was a very pretty state, but then I saw this place.
This place is gorgeous WOW 😮
Thanks for showing this. I’m still learning what my new home state has to offer. I’ve seen more of Michigan than I have of Ohio.
I'm still learning too. I'm sure both Michigan and Ohio have lots more amazing places to discover.
It's beautiful here. I live about 3 miles from Cantwell Cliffs and Rock House, halfway between. I absolutely love it here!
Wow, what a great place to live. It's really nice there.
