EDMUND FITZGERALD
It's the most famous shipwreck to have occurred on the Great Lakes. On November 10, 1975, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald sank, body and all, during one of those storms that make navigation on Lake Superior so formidable at this time of year.

Assembly Room
Within this room American independence was declared, a successful war was directed, and the U.S. Constitution was written. Delegates to the Second Continental Congress (1776) and the Constitutional Convention (1787) sat in Windsor chairs around baize-covered tables. The President's chair is the original one occupied by George Washington as he presided over the Constitutional Convention.

Yosemite
Not just a great valley, but a shrine to human foresight, the
strength of granite, the power of glaciers, the persistence of life, and
the tranquility of the High Sierra.
First protected in 1864,
Yosemite National Park is best known for its waterfalls, but within its
nearly 1,200 square miles, you can find deep valleys, grand meadows,
ancient giant sequoias, a vast wilderness area, and much more.

OHIO "Buckey State"
Thanks to marica sent Nov 14.2021
Ohio, constituent state of the United States of America, on the northeastern edge of the Midwest region. Lake Erie lies on the north, Pennsylvania on the east, West Virginia and Kentucky on the southeast and south, Indiana on the west, and Michigan on the northwest. Ohio ranks 34th in terms of total area among the 50 states, and it is one of the smallest states west of the Appalachian Mountains. The state ranks near the top, however, in population. Ohio’s capital, after being located in Chillicothe and Zanesville during the early years of statehood, was finally established in newly founded and centrally located Columbus in 1816. The state takes its name from the Ohio River, which in turn traces its name to an Iroquoian word meaning “great water.”
