Odyssey is in OHIO?!?!?

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Well, it began what became AIO and some of the episodes were rerun as AIO episodes, but reread what Nathan said for why I said it is "technically separate." :D

In short, Odyssey MAY OR MAY NOT be in Ohio. :D

It may be a little weird...there's discussion about Odyssey being in Ohio...but if you want to visit Whit's End...you need to go to Rock Springs, Colorado, and try Whit's Wod Fam Choc Sod (World Famous Chocolate Soda).

i guess that would make sense.but wat about the time when connie was going 2 mitch's funeral and that was in Maine. She said she was" heading over there now" and it started in a few minutes. that would be kinda hard 2 get from Ohio 2 Maine in under a few minutes. just a thought

I think that was actually when Connie was going to Mitch's memorial service, not his actual funeral in Maine. :) When Connie does go to Maine to visit Mitch's sister Rachael, she definitely takes more then two minutes. ;)

I'd rather live as if there were a God, and found out there isn't, then to live as if there weren't a God, and find out there is.

And before they got to the Ohio they came to Rev. Andrew's church (Whit's End). So that would make it south of the Ohio. But there's no way that a city could be south of the Ohio River and in the state of Ohio :-s....anyone follow that? lol well if we've learned anything over the years it's that the writers are human i suppose
Actually, they cross the Ohio long before they get to Rev. Andrew's house and church. So Odyssey is definitely north of the Ohio River.

I don't believe that the Family Portraits episodes are necessarily Odyssey "canon." There are a number of facts in those shows that contradict what Odyssey eventually became. For example, in that same show, Whit's description of the history of Whit's End is very different than what Tom tells in "Recollections."

Yeah, remember after the slave law, slave owners could go into the north to capture their slaves and underground railroad helpers could be imprisoned and the only way a slave could be free is if they escaped to canada.
