The whole midwest really. Although Michigan definitely has more to offer naturally in coastlines particularly the UP. What ever happened to the Columbus trip? That's where I'm at, and it is the best of the "3 C's" which isn't saying much when in competition with Cincinnati and Cleveland,. Cincinnati being the worst because of urban blight like Cleveland, but also rednecks from Kentucky.
Bummer, although I agree on the flying thing, even if it does involve driving some very dull landscape. I used to drive a lot for my job and have driven enough of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Pennsylvania to last me 12 lifetimes.
