A history gem still exists on the west side of Cleveland, offering a glimpse into a past filled with hardship and turmoil.
Known by many for its famous liberal arts college, the town of Oberlin played a critical role and offered hope to many as they trekked north on the underground railroad.
WKYC's Will Ujek has the story.

Tatsumaki – Oberlin College Taiko [Commencement 2016]
Hiroshi Tanaka wrote Tatsumaki for Stanford Taiko as one of their first originally composed pieces. It is now a staple in their repertoire, as well as an open source piece, thus free for the entire taiko community to learn and perform. This piece evokes the movement, energy, and power of tatsumaki, which means ‘tornado.’

Virtual Hike With Me -- Episode 7
Virtual Hike With Me (tm) - Episode 7, at the Oak Openings Preserve in Swanton, Ohio. (South-West of Toledo Ohio). Home of the greatest number of endangered plants / flowers in Ohio! A great many mushrooms along the trail too! Lots of deadwood. Great place to explore with several trails and a portion of the North Country National Scenic Trail.
Correction: The North Country Trail actually starts in New York and goes to North Dakota. I under-estimated it here. But you get the idea how awesome it is. : )

Driving around Brooklyn, Ohio including I480
Brooklyn was home to the very first seatbelt law in 1966 and the first cell phone law for motorists in 1999.
American Greetings world headquarters is currently in Brooklyn but, by the year 2014 will be relocated to Crocker Park in Westlake, Ohio.[9]
The Hugo Boss Plant was closed for three months in 2009 and was going to ship the jobs overseas to Turkey. However the union & The City of Brooklyn were able to reach a compromise and a three year contract reopening the plant shortly after.[10]
Brooklyn is home (next to city hall) to a decommissioned Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star (T-33A Tail #19263) jet plane.
Brooklyn High School school gained notoriety on October 20, 1955, when Elvis Presley performed in its auditorium. It was the first ever concert Elvis performed in the northern United States. It is also believed to be the first filmed concert in Elvis' career. It would be nearly a year before he appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show for the first time.
Elvis was not the headliner at the concert organized by legendary Cleveland DJ Bill Randle. The other, more popular performers were Bill Haley & His Comets, The Four Lads, and Pat Boone.
On October 20, 2005, some of the acts returned to participate in an anniversary event for this visit. Among the acts were Priscilla Wright, and Bill Haley's Original Comets. The BHS Chorale also performed a song with Priscilla Wright.[11] Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum designates Brooklyn High School a national rock 'n' roll landmark; Elvis Presley performed at the school on Oct 20, 1955.
