Living in Michigan as well, too, and a long time ago my parents and I drove across Ohio. It isn't so bad, not too different from Michigan I assure you. x3 Maybe a little, depending on where you live in the state you're in right now. But I think it's kinda nice, with what little I've experienced of it.
I'm sure everything will turn out okay, though. Even if it feels like you're not comfortable at first, I think everything will go well. ^^
