Here Bob Williams leaves
us at the Cincinnati Airport after riding from St. Louis with me. Since
the Cincinnati, Ohio, Airport is in Kentucky, go figure, we take the Anderson
Ferry, five miles west of downtown, back to Ohio and US 50, then through
Cincinnati.
--Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
As 50 passes through Cincinnati, it goes past two stadiums and an arena.
--Mariemont, Ohio, USA
This is a beautiful town, the most attractive town Hwy. 50 goes through in its 3,073 miles. The town looks like an old eastern US town with 50 becoming a wide tree-lined boulevard.
--Milford, Ohio, USA
We purchased gas here at 9:45 a.m. on this 4-state day and turned our watches forward one hour.--Hillsboro, Ohio, USA
Home of Johnny Paycheck who recorded, "Take
This Job and Shove It." Sign along the road, "Shazam! Junk!" reminding
me that Jim Nabors will be singing the National Anthem at the Indy 500 again
this year.
--Bainbridge, Ohio, USA
Newly planted corn fields. Curvy roads, rolling hills, seldom a straight stretch of road on 2-lane 50.--Chillicothe, Ohio, USA
Lunch at noon at a MacDonalds near the Interstate on the east side. Talked extensively with a lumber salesmanfrom Columbus, OH, about classic cars. He was very knowledgeable.--Athens, Ohio, USA
Overgrown rail fences around cornfields.
Ohio University. We pulled off the road onto a dirt road for a nature
call.
I was going to say this is what 50 looks like in Ohio. |

Cool town names, huh? Sounds like the
'50s for sure.
