    No word yet on the $515M powerball winning ticket in Pennsylvania.  Since they publish your name there some get a lawyer and set up a trust to protect yourself, smart move. And always sign the ticket in ink immediately in black ink and store it in a safe place. Tell nobody !

    Meanwhile in Ohio and what NOT to do in Florida.........

    Even after matching all six numbers, I was in disbelief and took my ticket to a retailer to have it checked,” Thomas Yi said. “The clerk at the counter instantly became excited and kept repeating that I had won the $235 million Powerball jackpot. I knew then that this would be life changing.”

    I remember when the lottery first started in the 70's.  The jackpot was much smaller then.  I came within one number of winning one million.

    Oh yes I remember the Buckeye 300 with a grand prize of $300,000 a big deal back then.

    The current race between the mega millions and the powerball is now designed to hit ? a $1 Billion and it has done that.  Money.

    The Akron Rd.  Speedway  is  only about a mile away from my house.  

    But it wasn't me who won.  DAMN!!

    I was wondering if that was in your neighborhood, nice little jackpot $163,000 or about $112,470 after withholding (+/-).   Not bad for $1.

    Nice post, would make for some interesting weekend trips right here in Ohio.

  • Me and the wife usually take a spin thru Amish country in the fall.  Probably toward peek leaf change.

    Never been to anywhere in SE Ohio.  Been to Cincinnati once, Wright Patterson AFB a few times, and Columbus many times.

  • My favorite thing about the state of Ohio are the plethora of parks and nature reserves we have... I'm an avid Hiker.. So I enjoy these Parks immensely. I'm heading down to Hocking Hills on the 12th.. I can't wait!...

    I haven't been there since I was a kid... I wondered if that place was still around... We used to go to Holiday Sands too... Went to Clay's park last year and had a royal blast...

  • I grew up on W. 47th St. between Storer Ave. and Dennison Ave.  Brookside Park where they used to play minor league Baseball games, had a huge circular swimming pool, the black old coal powered train (not used, just the engine on display).    All right next to the Zoo.

  •  ^ ^ ^ ^  --->   Was that in/near Parma,  my godparents lived there across from a elementary or junior high school  with a really steep driveway in front  And a very, very deep lot which ended up by a swimming pool/ recreation  area in back

    The pool fence ended on their property and we as kids could walk around it and go in......if we wanted to. 

    A super high hill which was great for sled riding.     Great times in Parma,  Ohio.

  • Just curious too, how many of you have "Dream On plans"  if you won some windfall money  ?  Serious money gifts ?  

    ........  edit add,  OH my wife had to go to GE, Giant Eagle and there were zero people in line for the lottery  We thought there would be more interest. 

    Got my 5 extra $1 billion winning tickets  the winner is in there.  😕

    " We're making a list checking it twice.

    The big lottery jackpot is coming to Boardman Ohio  that's nice."   

    Yeah dream on.   😆

    i love this picture

  • We were there for a H.S. reunion (can't go to Venezuela for that) last fall with a drive during the height of the leaf colors change from Columbus to the heart of Amish country in Wilmot, Ohio. We did not have enough time to visit up Canton or Cleveland way unfortunately since we were scheduled to go to Italy the following week. But what a great colorful drive back and forth from the Columbus airport. And we had sunny days when we flew in and out which was a truly impressive view of Ohio during the fall leaf time of the year. I can see why many of you love your state so much.

  • If your in these area's Tuesday or Wednesday? 

    Frank's shows are well worth seeing live !
