While traveling across Ohio recently, I stopped at the Red Tomato (That’s right. Dan Quayle couldn’t spell tomato right (Or was that potato?), but I can — thanks to spell check.) in Mt. Eaton. The gentleman in the blue shirt … Continue reading →

ELF 2FR; United Way; 4-H Clubs

Vote for Joe Posted on October 13, 2021 by Joe SchrinerOctober 13, 2021

Just interviewed the owner of this alternative vehicle. It’s called an ELF 2FR. It is, in essence, a sort of “Smartcar”-like body over a bicycle. And the 2FR suffix is that it has room for two (small back seat). These … Continue reading →

Vote for Joe Posted on September 23, 2021 by Joe SchrinerSeptember 23, 2021

With fall in full swing now, I’m trying to get in as many outside jobs as possible before winter — while continuing to hone my populist image (“Joe the Painter’). LOL. This was a shed I was painting in rural … Continue reading →

Bluffton has become an RTA experiment in this region. A bus out of Lima (pop. 40,000) is coming here five times a day, making a loop through the village (pop. 4,000), then heading back to the downtown station in Lima. … Continue reading →

A+ for Model A? Soccer anyone? Native grasses and less mowing…

Vote for Joe Posted on August 20, 2021 by Joe SchrinerAugust 20, 2021

Catching up on August… I interviewed a guy from Maine who was on a 9,000-mile retro-drive (on the Old Lincoln Highway, Old Rte. 66, and so on in his 1931 Model A. This design followed the Model T, which was … Continue reading →

I should have written on the card: “I need a ride to the White House.” Too late, I’m now a couple hundred miles from Mt. Eaton, Ohio. Mt. Eaton is Amish country. And we have spent a lot of time … Continue reading →
