We decided to take a little time to travel to TBO this year . Can anyone recommend any points of interest along I 74 between Illinois and Ohio ? We know about most of Indy stuff , just thought we would look around a bit on the way .

Brian,,,
you have to do Cedar Point in Sandusky,,, and go to Put in Bay ...take the Jet Express over ( or even Kellys Island) both are major Fun tourist attractions ...if you need a guide for Put in Bay or Kellys let me know...

President Hayes center in Fremont, Senica Caverns, according to the state you are to come & squander all your money in the casino in Toledo, Detriot is just up the road and Henry Ford Greenfield Village is a great day for cheap. Auburn museum in Ft Wayne Indiana. Train museum in Bellevue Ohio, Sprint cars are still running that time of year, Mid Ohio, Grattan Mi, Gingerman Raceway in Mi, Antique farmers tractors sale / auction for SCRAP on Monday after TBO. Fishing on lake Erie or jsut a nice way to spend a day running. Kelly's island, Catawba, Port Clinton, Drive through Canada from Detroit to Buffalo, NY and back around to TBO. Toledo Museum of art is big on glass. Bunch of Glass blowing places, Sauder Village. Lots and lots of things to see and do.

We plan on heading to Hanks in Hillsboro Ohio before TBO . So we were looking for something between the quad cities and Hillsboro . We thought that something in Indiana would be about half way and we could check a couple of places out and spend the night then head out for Hanks .

So anything along I 74 in Indiana besides Indy ?
