Most people go to Moonville.

this tunnel is quieter, creepier, and way less crowded than the famous one. 👀King’s Hollow Tunnel is hidden in Zaleski State Forest, cut straight through sandstone and still lined with 150-year-old timbers

It’s an easy walk, but the real payoff is the feeling - you’re standing inside a piece of a vanished railroad town.

If you like strange history, abandoned places, or hikes with a little edge to them, this one is worth the detour.

Would you explore this one at dusk or daytime?

Vinton Co is Full of ghost towns as it is the least populated county in Ohio!!

Ever wonder if there's more to history than dusty archives and old photos? Meet the first African-American auto mogul in Ohio, C.R. Patterson, whose story sparks a turbocharged ride through innovation, resilience, and a dash of the extraordinary.

From slavery to the forefront of the car industry, his journey proves that even in small towns like Greenfield, big dreams can leave a lasting legacy—and sometimes, a raccoon with a meth pipe is just the start of your wild news week.We break down the fascinating life of Charles Richard Patterson, the genius blacksmith who built America’s only African-American-owned car company. You'll discover how he transformed carriage-making skills into pioneering automotive craftsmanship — and why his business was ahead of its time, despite short-lived auto production. We dive into his family’s battles for equality, their role in local politics, and how a small Ohio town became an unlikely landmark of Black entrepreneurship.

You'll also hear about Patterson’s innovative cars, from affordability to style, and why the company’s limited scale was more about race and market forces than quality. Plus, a hilarious detour into Ohio’s bizarre news—like a raccoon holding a meth pipe—because, why not? This episode is perfect for history buffs, car enthusiasts, and anyone craving a story that proves resilience can fuel the road to greatness.

So, if you're into underdog stories with a turbo boost of African-American history and a sprinkle of the weird and wonderful, this one's for you. Just don’t get distracted by the murals next time you're passing through Greenfield—Charles Richard Patterson’s legacy is still rolling strong. Buckle up, it's a ride through history you won’t forget.------------------------------------------------------------------
