We also saw dead groundhogs on the side of the road. They must be the armadillos of Ohio. Although I did manage to see a live one on the side of the road, as well. Can’t often say that about armadillos!
Our only real stop in Ohio was Hopewell Mounds. We toured Mound City
and learned about the various artifacts that had been found in the mounds. These included items made of materials from the Gulf Coast, Lake Superior and Wyoming. The trade network the Hopewell people established was extensive.Then we drove on to Indiana for one reason only – James Dean’s gravesite.
I love James Dean, and this site has been on my list of things to see for quite some time. It was a highlight. Now I need to see the site where he died.
