Fairport Mardi Gras

   Now that is is festival season, it seems like I will have plenty to write about. Last week was the Ashtabula Beachglass Festival, then this week was the Fairport Harbor Mardi Gras. The Fairport Mardi Gras is actually just a parade and carnival, so I don’t know where they get the Mardi Gras name

Beach Glass Festival and Old Friends

    Last weekend my wife Mary Anne and I went on an adventure up to a place I haven’t been to much before, Ashtabula. It’s located on right on Lake Erie about an hour East of our cottage in Fairport Harbor. I’ve been there before for a couple of auctions and sales, but I’ve never

Fishing 2016

    Well, as I talked about last year, I’ve started to get back into going fishing a little bit, which I haven’t done a lot since I was little. I only got out once last year, but this year we have gone out a few times. It took a while to get the logistics straightened

Our New Cottage

     I just thought that I would show you a few pictures of our new cottage – just kidding. Last weekend my wife Mary Anne and I attended a charity event sponsored by her work, Paul Moss Company at the Wolstein family’s Ravencrest estate in Hunting Valley. The event was to support the H.E.L.P.

A Tough Nut to Crack – Part 2

    As I started to tell you about last weeks, I have been working on my new (old) farm discs. I got the first axle apart and back together, so I figured that now that I knew the parts and how they fit together, I shouldn’t have too much trouble with the other three. WRONG!

A Tough Nut to Crack

     Yesterday, I had the day off, so of course I was at home working like a fiend. My project for the day was to rework the set of cultivating discs that I bought at the farm auction a few weeks ago. It was complete, but it had been sitting, so the axles were

It’s for the Birds

    My wife always says that having lots of birds around means that nature is doing well in your area. If this is true then nature’s doin’ great at our house. We have several bird feeders scattered around our house and some birdhouses hung up too. My wife fills the feeders almost every day and

Geauga Consumer Connection

    This week Hill Hardware participated in the Geauga Consumer Connection show that was held at the Kent State Geauga campus. We set up a booth and brought up several samples of different lines that we carry. I had different tools, such as Channel Lock pliers, Estwing hammers, Lodge cookware and several others. I also

Garden Time

    Now that Spring is firmly arrived, it’s time to start thinking about your backyard garden. Actually it’s pretty late to get started as all hard-core gardeners have been planning all Winter. I always like to put in a vegetable garden in the backyard every year. It reminds me of my parent’s garden that we

It Was Super

    One of my standard jobs around our house is creating costumes out of nothing. I guess that this ability was developed when I was in college and we needed costumes for Halloween or various other costume-themed events, but we didn’t have any money to spend on them. It wasn’t listed on the Ohio University
