Had a pretty funny experience. It was a very rainy day and I thought I'd take my camera and snap a few photos of the holiday decorations at this mall. My camera club is having a holiday photo competition. I was stopped by the mall security and told I needed to apply for a permit to take photographs in this mall. I told the mall security guard I was from NJ and he ask about a recent mall shooting in the state. I responded that I was pretty sure that the person was not shot dead with a camera. I didn't have an issue with this and complied, but thought it was very typical of Ohio culture where cameras are viewed as more dangerous than guns.
The mall is neat and clean and has a good selection of stores. My grandchildren love to shop there.
