A record breaking winter with the subsequent thaw of snow, closely followed by spring rains, has lead to the flooding of the Ohio River Valley. The Cincinnati skyline is softened by a dense fog which also hangs over the fast moving currents of the Ohio River.

Saint Andrew’s United Methodist Church — Historical Overview
Findlay, Hancock County, Ohio
Sources: Bowling Green State University archival collections
Saint Andrew’s is one of Findlay’s long‑standing Methodist congregations, with documentary records stretching back to the 1870s and printed histories tracing its roots even earlier into the 19th‑century Methodist movement in Hancock County.
📜 Founding & Early Methodist Roots (1820s–1870s)
Archival materials include a printed history titled “History of St. Andrew’s United Methodist Church, 1822–1970”, indicating that the congregation traces its origins to 1822, when Methodist Episcopal preaching circuits were first active in the Findlay area.
Key early features:
• Methodist Episcopal congregations in Ohio often began as class meetings or circuit rider stops.
• By the mid‑1800s, Findlay had organized Methodist congregations that later evolved into what became St. Andrew’s.
• The earliest surviving record books for St. Andrew’s begin in 1876, documenting baptisms, marriages, deaths, and membership lists.
This places St. Andrew’s among the oldest continuous Methodist communities in northwest Ohio.

Ohio City Town Hall founded in 1906 when their was a lot of Mining going on. Few mining towns had more demises and re-births than did Ohio City. Gold gave the town its start in the early 1860s and shut it down when the placer gold ran out. No one bothered to find the lode that was the source of the nuggets and Ohio City was no more. The silver boom of 1879 brought miners back to what was left of the town. A sizable vein was found and Ohio City was re-born. That lasted until 1893 when the boom collapsed and so did the town.

Ludlow Falls is located in the village of Ludlow Falls Ohio. On our way to Fort Wayne, Indiana, my wife and I parked in a dirt parking lot across from the post office in this little town of about 200. This 15 ft high falls is on Ludlow Creek located under a highway bridge. A short path leads from the lot to the falls.
Woke up to heavy fog and decided to skip my run and go shooting instead. I explored a new spot along the Ohio River not far from my house. This was up the bank a little bit. I used my 70-200mm lens, B&W circle polarizer, and Lee Big Stopper to get this image.

Billy Mays'death came as one hell of a shock and meant a lot to me. Let me explain why.
When I first came to America I wondered at this strange shouty-man with his black beard and lumberjack build yelling at me from the TV and I marvelled that, somehow, he’d managed to get a job advertising various people’s products that way. I asked my wife and she told me, matter of factly, that it was Billy Mays. Of course it was. So I turned to that font of all knowledge, Wikipedia and found out a little bit about the man who’d raised from selling stuff on the Atlantic City boardwalk to TV semi-celebrity.
As time passed, I’d see him and my wife would always say: “there’s your man” and we would smile. To me, in a way, he came to symbolise my new life in America and I trusted him to sell me stuff because he put his name to it - think about it: if the goods he was pushing didn’t work, how long would he be able to stand up there and start, “Billy Mays here…” and still have people believe in him?
So his passing struck me in a way it probably didn’t for most Americans. To me he was the fist “American” celebrity I will have to mourn on my own. No-one in the UK would have a clue who he was, he was no Michael Jackson after all, so his death was a disconnect, a separation, from my old life and a date of note in my new home.
RIP Billy Mays, 1958-2009

Downtown Dayton, Ohio. Not much around and it looks as though the city is slowly shutting down. Another victim.

I was cutting my lawn this afternoon and noticed a rather large commotion going on in the corner of my yard. Junior was learning to fly with the assistance of at least two adult females and one adult male cardinal. They were very enthusiastic about the process. I turned off the mower and ran inside for my camera - how sweet is that little bird face?!

Across the river in Louisville, Kentucky, is LG&E's Cane Run generating station. It began generating electricity from coal in 1954. By 1969, the plant had 6 units with a total generating capacity of 943 megawatts (MW). Three coal-fired units had been retired by 1987 (though their stacks remained) and in 2015, the other three were shut down. This coincided with the placing into service of Unit 7, a 691 MW natural gas combined-cycle (NGCC) generating unit. The coal-burning structure was demolished in 2019.
