Ohio Statehouse

Ohio History

Statehouse from Above

The Rhodes Tower also happens to be just a few blocks from the Ohio Statehouse. This allowed us a front-seat view of the Statehouse from the air. The unusual green roof has always been a characteristic of our statehouse, as well as the rounded cupola on top. The wing on the front (left-hand) side houses the legislature meeting rooms, while the governor's office is near the dome in the main building. The smaller breezeway was built to connect the two, and has beautiful windows and pillars. Yes, now I'm going to have to do a series on the Statehouse!

Not Any Old Trailer

Last of all, we spotted this truck trailer parked in an alley nearby. Made me wonder what its story was. It looked like it was being loaded or something, and would soon be moving on. I guess we were there at just the right moment.
