TIL cargo ships go to Ohio.

Great lakes life. Ganted, there are way fewer cargo ships than saltwater ports, but it's hard to beat a big ship for cheaply moving goods/raw materials around.

You know, I always forget that Ohio is part of the Great Lakes region. I don't know why.

.....I don't know why either......although for me it would be impossible to forget. I grew up in a house that I could walk to the lake in about 10 minutes.
