AT#246 - Travel to Northern Ohio

The Amateur Traveler talks to Seth Oakley about traveling to his birthplace in Northern Ohio. Years ago Ohio and Northern Ohio in particular, had a very bad reputation for pollution that one can only get when a river (the Cuyahoga) catches fire. But these days Lake Erie is cleaner than it has been in maybe a hundred years and boasts sites like the Rock and Rock Hall of Fame, Cedar Point, surfing, and even a burgeoning wine region. The area is rich in history as the site of the Battle of Lake Erie, the birthplace of Thomas Edison and one of the first states added to the new United States. Seth also gives us a glimpse of small town life with a side trip to his hometown of Milan which is the home for both the Milan Melon Festival and the little-known superhero Melon Man.NewsChris takes a new jobShow NotesNorthwest TerritoryCuyahoga RiverMoon Handbooks: OhioOhio: Off the Beaten PathMilan, OhioLake ErieZebra musselsOhio on WikipediaFirelandsHistory of OhioCity of ClevelandThe Rock and Roll Hall of FameGreat Lakes Science CenterOhio’s sports miseryLeBron adds to Cleveland sports setbacksA Prairie Home Companion with Garrison KeillorLeBron signs with MiamiSandusky, OhioCedar Point Amusement ParkCedar PointDestination: Cedar Point Amusement ParkSoak CitySandusky HotelsLake-effect snowLake Erie IslandsBattle of Lake EriePaper Moon VineyardsPaper Moon Vineyards, Vermillion, OhioThomas EdisonOhio Festivals and EventsMilan Melon FestivalFirelands WineyardsGreat Lakes BreweryMelon Man’s Facebook Learn more about your ad choices.
