The Van Wert County Council on Aging has started its day bus trips again for adults in the community after halting them last year. The trips are open to anyone 18 and older, and travel to various tourist locations in Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and Indiana. Each excursion is rated a level 1 through 4 walking level, to give travelers a heads up on how active they will be. The first trip last week to The Ark Encounter in Kentucky was a hit. Brenda DeLong is on the council's travel committee and says this is the perfect opportunity for those that want to travel but don't want the hassle of planning.
