They had just concluded a large exterior project before I visited. Hopefully, the next time you visit downtown, it'll be open for you.

That park as changed so much! A long time ago when I was a senior at Fairfield Union, we used to have our varsity soccer practices there! I'll have to check out the garden next time I come down! Thanks!

Just did last night, wasn’t a single issue for the entire walk from moonsville to kings hollow

And when you have a job as a park officer and when you drive to investigate the tunnel you hear a train whistle

The whole region around Lancaster holds such a unique history-both geologically and antropologically. Sadly, much of the Native American earthworks and mounds have been tilled over for agriculture. But signs do still exist if you know where to look. Evidence of the early settlers to the Northwest Territories are also readily found in the area, too, and it's not as hard to find! Thanks for commenting!

Thanks for sharing! Dublin has certainly grown. The way they kept the old town center, yet connected it to the new, modern Bridge Park, really created something quite special.

You happened to visit the conservatory during the week that most of the County school districts were off for spring break. I can completely understand why you felt it was packed with kids. The conservatory offers programming for families that week, which brings in thousands of visitors. I'd suggest visiting on a weekday, after 2pm. Most school groups have headed out by that time, and Mon-Thurs tend to be the least busy days. Senior tickets are $4 less expensive than an adult ticket. Plus, if you have AAA, a membership to another local cultural institution, or are active or retired military, you can get an additional 1-3 dollars off your admission. Parking is also always free there, too. The Conservatory campus, by and large, is wheelchair accessible. They even offer free rentals of scooters and wheelchairs on a first-come-first-served basis. There are also many benches and seats around the campus if you need a rest. I sincerely hope you attribute your experience to an unfortunately timed visit and give them another chance -but maybe not during spring break. Thanks for commenting!!

From what I can find, it looks like the first well may have been J.W. Huston and/or the Bremen Gas and Oil Company, in the fall of 1907. Thanks for the question!

Most of Ohio's steep cliffs, tall waterfalls, and sandstone ravines and caves are in the Hocking Hills region. It's one of the best places to "step out of the ordinary" here in Ohio. I hope you get to visit sometime, if you haven't already! Thanks for the comment!

Absolutely! COSI has been one of my favorite places ever since I was a child visiting the original location on East Broad. I hope someone who sees this video will be inspired to visit and have the same sense of wonder I did as a child! Thanks for the kind comment!

We actually took 3 days/2 nights for this trip. We wanted to spend a bit more time in each area, so we stayed in Wooster, OH, the first night, then near Ashtabula, OH, the next. Looking forward to visiting there again next Fall! Thanks for the kind comment!

Why the frown? Not a fan of Lancaster, or it's History?

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the compliment. These videos are a labor of love and this particular one is a personal favorite. (I grew up in Rushville).

I honestly do not know the answer to your question. If I had to guess, I'd say it was likely a small village that ultimately was absorbed into Lancaster. But that's speculation on my part. I'll add this to my list of things to research, and if I come up with the answer, I'll share my findings here. Thanks for the great question!

If memory serves, The name Adena has been applied to Native Americans who inhabited the area, primarily because Adena is what Thomas Worthington named his estate. I believe they found earthworks on the estate and subsequently, they named the people after the estate. But Adena is from the Old Testament. (I think) it's the name of a soldier.

I certainly don't mind if folks share the link to my videos! Feel free to share the video link where ever you'd like. I don't typically allow people to embed or sample my videos because my music copyright is only valid on one platform at a time. Thanks for reaching out!

As a Hungarian from Cleveland.... Neat.

We had a wonderful time! Our guide was fantastic. My favorite part of the tour was when we visited the Atrium and our guide explained the story behind the pigeon statue, over the Senate Building door. I'm looking forward to returning when it's warmer and enjoying Capitol Square a bit more. Also, thank you for the compliment! The quality of the footage you can record on an iPhone, today is incredible. It makes this kind of hobby a lot easier.

My pleasure! Thanks for taking the time to comment, too!

It certainly has grown! I joined the Conservatory team last year and I am constantly amazed by the all the programs and exhibits we create year after year. It's a wonderful place to visit and to work!

The old theater is definitely visible in this video. My grandfather owned the Union76 garage in town. Clyde would often be at the garage talking with the other regulars. Clyde also built a beautiful cottage in West Rushville, with a few small outbuildings. It's still one of the prettiest properties in the area. His daughter owns it now, and she had been using it at an AirBnB. You can see it in the Simply Flying: A brief history of West Rushville video.

@@marcusshull Dawn told me once that I was the only one allowed to be around when he was making his cabin. The tinnitus that he had was severe, and got worse if he was around nosy people who kept him from work. I have often wondered who had the cabin now. HIS DAUGHTER Anita, or Eric's wife. Or just who.

Eastern Fairfield County has such a unique history, and I've always been fascinated with the history of the area. It was a wonderful area to grow up in. I appreciate the kind words!

Sorry to disappoint! Ohio has a lot of awesome things to see, but unless you visit Columbus around Halloween, you probably won't see too many zombies or giants. Meteor showers, however, we do get those on occasion. Thanks for the comment!

True bro, Ohio has lots of beauty now i seen it. But you took it so seriously 😄. Thanks for your reply.

I mean you can find some zombies in some areas lol. Mansfield, Elyria, Lorain, etc. A lot of Ohio is naturally beautiful though. It's the man made stuff that usually makes Ohio look worse. Like abandoned run down businesses all over Lorain County (north east Ohio) and newly formed homeless shanty towns due to poverty. We do have some hope though as there is a very large push to bring Intel fabrication to Columbus which should if done right boost jobs and economy in the entire state. We will see. P.S. we have some super diverse wild life here if you're into that. I get opossums, deer, cardinals, herons, humming birds, bats, frogs, toads, salamanders, turtles, an occasional nosy fox, coyote (dangerous keep away and discourage this visitor) even some lizards specifically three lined skinks around my property. Deer are a problem though. Personally I like them but not when they jump in front of my 23 year old Lincoln. It's very hard to find parts for that car and I love it lol.
