I like nothing better than a leisurely road trip, taking the back roads and two-lane highways from small town to small town and discovering all sorts of roadside gems that others bypass entirely while barreling down the expressways and superhighways.
The Lincoln Highway was the first transcontinental road in the United States, the super road of the early 1900s. Much of the old Lincoln Highway became U.S. 30 when the federal government established a standardized numbering system for the nation's highways in the late 1920s, but today you can still exit the expressway and tool down much of the old Lincoln Highway through Ohio.
Check out my most recent story at the Ohio Tourism Division's Discovering Ohio blog, Highlights along the Lincoln Highway in Ohio, where I share some of our discoveries along the fabled route.
