I LOVE to plan trips. In fact,
sometimes I think that I may enjoy planning
a trip more than actually taking the
trip. Mr. O-P is from New Jersey so this
means many trips east. Many, long trips
DRIVING east. After ten years or so,
this same trip can get pretty boring. A
couple of years ago I decided to attempt to make the drive less monotonous by
looking for another route and something interesting to see off of our usually
beaten path. It was then that I stumbled
upon Zoar, Ohio.
Zoar is a village in Tuscarawas County, Ohio. It was founded in 1817 by German religious dissenters
called the Society of Separatists of Zoar.
A former communal society, it features numerous German-style structures
that have been restored and are part of the Zoar Village State Memorial. For a taste of Old-World charm in east-central
Ohio, it is well worth a visit.
