Campbell Hill, Ohio: The Business Park

What a relief it was, the stress completely gone, when we turned off the interstate and headed along the lesser byways toward Bellefontaine, Ohio through the rolling farmlands.  A right turn and a brief jaunt brought us to the campus of a job training center, and the highest point in Ohio, Campbell Hill.  There were no signs from the highway, and we had to go on the ten year old guidebooks to thread our way through the parking lots to the top of the hill.

So it wasn't Clingman's Dome or Brasstown Bald.  We had fun findin
g it.  My comment: highpointing is like a cross country scavenger hunt.  Road trip plus navigating skills plus a little bit of deduction along the way.  We bond, we team up, we solve problems, we listen to podcasts.  Four hour podcasts on the siege of Muenster in 1536.  Wow, Dan Carlin, you are a great narrator of history. Highly recommended for road trips or lengthy hospital stays.  Any time with time to listen.  Hardcore History with Dan Carlin.  Itunes it.

We dialed in Bethel, Indiana to the Iphone maps app and headed out for what we expected would be an uneventful 90 minute drive to Hoosier Hill.  We were wrong.  Siriously wrong.
