Old is New in Fairfield Ohio!
2008-02-29 21:24:00 Yesterday I had the chance to catch up with a dear friend who has been dabbling in antiques for many years. She is looking for items dated prior to 1970 and wanted to know if I had any sellers with items for sale. Short story long, she has a booth at the recently opened Ohio Valley Antique Mall located at Route 4 and Woodbridge. (The site of the long gone Van Leunen’s store) I must admit that I am not an antique shopper but decided to stop on my way home and take a peak at booth 271 (my friend’s spot) and was amazed at the size of the place and the amount of merchandise on display. Unfortunately I did not have time to wander up and down the aisles- but there is enough neat things there to warrant another trip in the near future. The good news is the revival of a great location just as you enter Fairfield on Route 4.  Since Van Leunen’s closed a zillion years ago (it seems that long), Laser Tag has been the major draw to fill the large parking lot. T...

Take a Bird’s Eye View of Emerald Lake in Fairfield, Ohio
2008-02-27 08:30:00 For decades Fairfield residents heading west on Resor Rd had to turn right or left when the road dead ended at Pleasant Avenue. The intersection started to change in May, 2004 when the Welsh Development Company paid $5,025,000 for approximately 27 acres of land and began the transforming the land into the Emerald Lake subdivision. Along with new homes, we finally got a much needed stop light at the intersection of Resor and Pleasant Since construction started in 2005, over 50 homeowners have moved into the neighborhood with recorded sales prices ranging from mid $300,000 to over $600,000. It looked as if the future in Emerald Lake was in question when, in the fall of 2007, the builder Ryan Homes abruptly pulled out of the Cincinnati market leaving both the home owners and the city concerned about the continued development. Fortunately, (probably due to the price range and location) Fischer Homes stepped in and took over the lots….and they hit the ground...

Fairfield, Connecticut Concerns.....
2007-12-27 16:43:00 Jessica, a visitor and reader of my blog, is a Boston Red Sox fan. She lives in Fairfield county, which is in the southwest portion of my state, Connecticut. The cable companies have to play by the MLB rules, and YES, the Yankee network, is the only baseball-team related signal that they're allowed to carry. NO NESN! I'll repeat that. NO NESN!!!!!!! And that's a shame. I have other blog friends, one who STILL lives in that blacked-out county (Reb) and one who has recently moved to a NESN happiness zone (Jere). I'd like to give you the link that Jessica, just now, gave me. Sign the petition if you can, while thinking about all those loyal fans, members of our Red Sox Nation, who are shut out of the every game coverage of the best team in baseball. That's what NESN does, to our delight. JUST CLICK ON THE TITLE OF THIS POST, and you'll be directed to the petition site.Thank you Jessica, and don't forget to click on this post's title, my Constant Readers!! And thank you.
