Travel Guide

Congressional Medal of Honor plaque just outside the courthouse. Three of these men were members of a small Union Army party to penetrate 200 miles into the South and capture an enemy train in an attempt to destroy bridges and track between Chattanooga and Atlanta.
Restored in 1972, this school is typical of the early 20th century schoolhouses once found throughout Ohio townships. My grandmother taught in one very similar to this.
Once upon a time here sat the largest gas well in world. The Great Karg Well was drilled in 1886, and overnight Findlay became an industrial boomtown. This single well produced 12,000,000 cubic feet (340,000 cubic meters) of gas per day, and when lit it burned with a flame 100ft high and was visible more than 30 miles away. At that time gas was simply a by-product of oil drilling, and with no way to store it they ended up piping it away for free to heat homes and drive industrial machinery. The primary benefactor was the glass industry, in which gas was the major expense, and glass companies relocated here from around the world. Eventually, though, the gas ran out, and within a decade the feverish pitch had ground to a trickle. #thisismyhometown

Historic courthouse completed in 1888 amid Findlay's gas boom years. The courthouse cost $500,000, an enormous sum, particularly so given Findlay's population at the time was only 20,000 people. The courthouse features an 18' copper statue of John Hancock atop the clock tower. Inside you'll find ornately tiled floors, lovely stained glass windows and early Victorian woodwork.

They need to have an adult swim time. Couldn't even get in the pool or hot tube because there were kids everywhere. No gravy at breakfast.
