What can you do in Mansfield?
What can't you do in Mansfield? Would you like to ride a hard-carved wooden carousel? Buy some Amish-made jam? Visit the prison in which The Shawshank Redemption was filmed? Then Mansfield is the place for you. The librarian sent us the brochure ahead of time, so we planned our tourism excursions on the drive up!
Really though, it's a good thing that this county has so many unique attractions, because there are actually a lot of things you can't do in Mansfield. Like find a decent cup of coffee. Or a restaurant that hasn't mysteriously closed or disappeared since its most recent review on google was posted. The local motto is, "Mansfield, a reason for all the seasons." This is supposed to imply, I assume, that one has a reason to stay in Mansfield, all year. Or, that Mansfield is somehow mysteriously responsible for the four seasons we experience. We found that this motto failed to capture the true essence of Mansfield, so we took a crack at it ourselves.
Mansfield, a reason to leave Ohio.Mansfield, deceptively cute in the dark.
Mansfield, you'll need another drink.
After almost an entire week of shows here, we've become even more thankful for the places we're from, and for the places we're going. On to DC: better get busy living or get busy dying.

Your mistake was entering Ohio in the first place.
