As captured by Jeffrey Smith, I think the Diocese of Toledo has some of the most beautiful architecture anywhere in the country. Whether urban or rural, there are some beautiful churches there, and there's nothing quite like driving across the glacial plains of Northwest Ohio and seeing a church spire from miles away, seemingly in the middle of a cornfield.
It looks like you're all in good hands with Bishop Blair these days as well.
