Aurora, Ohio is a really nice place...
Took the day off to go to Ohio with my fiancee, Tabitha. She had a job interview which went pretty well, they want her back for a second next week.
But something caught me as kind of odd - the area is really nice. Now, it may just have been a nice area that we went through, or perhaps it's just because they try to keep it clean for the nearby amusement park, Geagua Lake. Maybe.
But whatever the case is, it's really nice there. Not a single unkempt lawn in site, traffic's not too bad, no malls but lots of plazas. The houses and apartment buildings are all new or well-kept.
It's kind off odd, compared to PA. Heck, even the road signs are better - 500 feet before each intersection, there's a sign that tells you what that road is and what road you are on. Now, this may seem, well, simplistic. However, I wish that, say, Pennsylvania did that.
It just seems to be a nice area that seems to think about the little things. It reminds me of Cranberry Township, PA (not the one where I live now, but the one just north of Pittsburgh, PA), but with a little more feng shui or balance or design. I can't describe it - it just seems nice.
