117 - Great Serpent Mound - Peebles, OH




Travel Oddities show

Summary: <br> One week back from the Ozark Mountains UFO Conference and we are all still a little slap-happy! On this week’s episode, Harley and Brett have to strip off the excess gear to fully explore one of the most scenic areas in all of Ohio, Peebles, OH.<br> This place was apparently built for hikers. With miles of trails, you can hike for days or take an afternoon exploring one of the smaller trails.<br> We have an interview with Ross Hamilton about the Great Serpent Mound and he is smarter than us. We discuss his 12 year exploration of the Serpent Mound and his book The Mystery of the Serpent Mound.<br> What is the origin of the Serpent Mound?<br> What is its astronomical significance?<br> Why was it built here?<br> Who were the Adena people?<br> Is the Serpent Mound a path to enlightenment, a map of the stars, haunted, or an intergalactic Phillips 66?<br> There are events feature drumming, sweat lodges, healing ceremonies, and crystal skulls at the mound.<br> What is Sound Current meditation?<br> If you have already found enlightenment, you can always check out the Cedar Trails Nudist Retreat. It is family orientated and they have loads of activities….we tried to not make it weird….that didn’t work.<br> BK Scoop in West Union may have the coolest menu ever. #travelodditiesapproved<br> The Top 5 is full of icons and lies.<br> <a href="https://amzn.to/2HU1kQC">Ross Hamilton’s Books</a><br> <a href="http://www.greatserpentmound.com/">Serpent Mound Info</a><br> <a href="https://www.ohiohistory.org/visit/museum-and-site-locator/serpent-mound">Serpent Mound Park</a><br> <a href="https://indiancountrymedianetwork.com/history/events/crazy-theories-threaten-serpent-mound-demean-native-heritage/">Ghost stories around the Serpent Mound</a><br> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPRrva7mFjw">Serpent Mound Video</a><br> <a href="http://www.medicinehunter.com/nad-yoga">Sound Current Meditation</a><br> <a href="https://www.cedartrailsnudistretreat.com/">Cedar Trails Nudist Retreat</a><br> <a href="http://www.adamscountytravel.org/">Adams County</a><br> <a href="http://parks.ohiodnr.gov/adamslake">Adams Lake Park</a><br> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FoEEx5VvcE">Outro Music – Nigthtcore version of Ohio is For Lovers by Hawthorne Heights</a><br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BK-Scoop-287993668073487/">BK Scoop</a><br> <br> Help us keep the show running by joining our Patreon!<br> <a href="https://www.patreon.com/Travelodditiespodcast">Patreon Page</a><br> Subscribe, Rate &amp; Review – <br> <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/travel-oddities/id1049013947?mt=2">ITunes</a><br> <a href="https://goo.gl/app/playmusic?ibi=com.google.PlayMusic&amp;isi=691797987&amp;ius=googleplaymusic&amp;link=https://play.google.com/music/m/Iye5sylbaqfdg7qee6tearzxcwq?t%3DTravel_Oddities">Google Play</a><br> <a href="http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/travel-oddities">Stitcher</a><br> You can support our efforts anytime you shop on Amazon – <br> <a href="http://amzn.to/2il28Qj">To Shop Amazon for Any and All Items, Just Click Here</a><br> Share us with your friends – <br> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/travelodditiespodcast/">Facebook</a><br> <a href="https://twitter.com/TravelOddPod">Twitter</a><br> You can share original art, clips, show ideas, trip reports or writing a blog entry for our page. <br> <a>Just click here.</a><br> <a href="http://survey.podtrac.com/start-survey.aspx?pubid=dzPtU7Vp6Lt3&amp;ver=short">Fill out our survey!</a><br>
