3. Do something weird with science at COSI.

At Thursday's COSI After Dark – BOOM! Explosive Science we'll be attempting the 1812 Overture again. Last time we blew the 'I' off of COSI. Think we should try for the 'S' this time?

7. Do some urban exploration in Cincinnati’s abandoned subway.

Got the incredibly rare opportunity to tour the infamous Cincinnati Subway beneath Central Parkway last week. So much history to what could have been a great example of mass transit for the region. #cincinnatisubway #cincyhistory #cincystory #cincinnati #cincygram #queencityscenes #makecincyyours #masstransit
