When one thinks of the key features of a home, several things may come to mind: the dinning room table, the living room, the front door. But there are some items that few would consider. Take, for instance, the staircase. It is a simple feature, connecting one floor of the home to another. In my home, the staircase is no exception. It connects the bedrooms, full bathrooms, and impromptu home office to the living and eating areas. Before the lock down, I and everyone else in the house used the staircase frequently. Ironically, once we spent the vast majority of our time at home, we used the stairs less frequently, settling down with whatever we were doing until it was time to move on to the next thing. I spent several days cooped up in my room and several more playing board games and watching TV with the family. While it may not be glorious, the home would not be the same without a staircase. #journeytonku2020 #humansofgreatercincinnati
