I've lived here my entire life and have always been fascinated with Ohio's geological and historical past. Thank you for posting this video.

Lived there for a couple months 5 years ago. Still miss it sometimes. Very green, lots of nice hills, plenty of nature to soak up.. not a bad place to be

My brother and I used to find fossils and arrow heads when we were kids. Very cool.

I never thought about Ohio being beautiful! For some reason I had abandoned factories in my head. Great post and thank you. Now I wanna go!

I would like to vacation in Ohio for at least a week. I want to visit Amish Country foremost and spend some days there, I also am interested in road tripping some of the small farming communities and towns to site see the beautiful farms and experience the small town cafes and hospitality.

Don't forget Fallsville, near Careytown in Clinton-Highland County area. Be careful visiting though, it's slippery rock.

What about Mount Pleasant in Lancaster Ohio. An entire Mountain was left by a glacier

To sum up everything, Ohio is absolutely horrible when it comes to finding minerals. Damn sandstone and shale take over the state
