      I think I picked up the phrase from the Mupped Show years ago.

    Should have stopped by Ohio's Million Dollar Playground. Indian Lake was called Ohio's Million Dollar Playground around 1910 until about 1930. Stop by the Spillway, one of the most unique anywhere in the USA.

    So neat about the first paved street. I like seeing the highest points in the states you go to that’s pretty cool .

    Actually one street over on the other side of the Courthouse is the first concrete street. You forgot about the shortest street in America is in B-town also.

    • @DraysWorld
      @DraysWorld  2 роки тому +1

      All the information online says that it’s Court Street, the one with the statue of the creator. I didn’t explore the other side. also, I didn’t forget, I didn’t know!

    Good stuff. Debatable history... we may truly never know

    • @DraysWorld
      @DraysWorld  2 роки тому +1

      Agreed. I suspect there is a difference in material used which makes one or the other both valid 'first streets'. Interesting that my travels took me near both of these within a few days of each other. Thanks for telling me about this historical oddity.

    The neat thing with Campbell Hill and Court Street is you're less than 80 miles away to Hoosier Hill, the highest point in Indiana.
    And just over the border from that hill is Rich Mullins' grave in Hollansburg, a 4 mile trip to Hollansburg Cemetery.

      First time in high school, last time was 2007. If I ever get the opportunity, I think reacquainting myself would make for a good video subject.
