A bonding moment between father and son becomes a nightmare for the rest of the family.

If it wasn't for the US / Trump attitude I'd head for Eastern Ohio. Western Ohio is flat and boring. Just be careful. In Canada a "F Trudeau" hat gets you a cheer. In the USA a "F Trump" hat gets you shot. You're there in about five hours so if something isn't working out the return trip isn't...
