(All maps and such in this section from MapQuest. Thanks MapQuest!)
So. Kerr Corner, Ohio. This is the first of my spots that is actually within 500 miles of home.
Kerr Corner, Ohio. 463.29 miles as the crow flies. A bit more by road for sure. Especially since for a road trip like this I'll be sure to go all back roads. No Interstates allowed! It is right smack in the middle of Ohio.
Well, OK, perhaps just a little Northwest of center.
Now, at this point, let me point out Dayton, Ohio. About 70 miles or so Southwest of my random spot. I only mention this location becase Chad Hunter, frequent #1 placer on my monthly email top ten lists, happens to live there. (Well, right outside there in Beaver Creek.) So he'd better at least join me for a meal or something during this trip, if he doesn't actually go along to find the spot itself.
Zooming in a little further...
The spot is between Kerr Corner, and Summersville. Between US Route 33 and Ohio Route 4. One last zoom...
Looks like it is right off McMillian Road. Just a little off Ohio Route 47. Wonder what is there? Well, for this area MapQuest offers a handy satellite picture feature...
My spot is the exact center of that photo. Hmmm... Looks like a field. On a farm. Looks like farm buildings a little to the West. Cool.
What can I find out about the area? A google search on Kerr Corner Ohio didn't turn up much. But really, it is just outside Columbus, Ohio. I'm sure I could find more than I would ever want about Columbus. It is a little closer to Marion, Ohio, which is in between in size. Marion has a website:
They even have a webcam: http://www.marion.net/video.htm
And looks like they have some B&B type places nearby, which are always more fun to stay at than motels and hotels and the like. One of the first I came across, in Delaware, Ohio (about 15 miles from the spot) is the Welcome Home Inn:
http://www.bbonline.com/oh/welcomehome/index.html
(Picture from bbonline.com. Thanks!)
I may end up there, or perhaps someplace else. I'll determine that a bit later closer to when I go, which will be sometime in 2003 Q1 (January to March). At that time I'll also look around more for fun things to do in that area.
This trip will be for sometime in January, February or March of next year. I am going to insist that Chad participate at least a little since he is so close. :-) But if anybody else is interested in joining me for part or all of my road trip from New Jersey to Ohio and back, just let me know. If you express interest in the next few weeks you can help in picking out exactly when we’ll go, where we’ll stay, etc. (I typically look to stay at B&B type places, because they are more interesting than motel/hotel places.)
Let me know, should be a fun back roads trip there and back (hopefully different routes each way) plus some time in the middle exploring the wonders of central Ohio. :-)
Speak up if you want to go to Ohio! :-)
