Speaking of festivals: Ohio is one of the most "festival-obsessed" states, according to a recent Google search analysis by UK fashion retailer Boohoo.

The latest: Festival season is already underway, with the Geauga County Maple Festival in Northeast Ohio and Pike County Dogwood Festival south of Columbus this weekend.
