Piqua

He sawed walnut lumber, built houses, hunted catamounts, deer, coons, and squirrels, wrestled and studied medicine with an old doctor of the horse syringe school.

It was while in the backwoods of Piqua County, Ohio, at the village of Circleville, that he met and married Margaret Ann Fannin, my sainted mother.

She was the most superb woman I have ever known, and I try to think of her apart from being my mother so that I can be certain she was most wonderful as all mothers are wonderful.

I do not know much about her family because both of her parents died of a mysterious sickness within two days when my mother was a babe in arms.

Dr. Victor Vaughan, dean of the medical school of the University of Michigan, than whom there is not a more earnest devotee of medical research in the world, writes to me that the milk sickness, so-called of the pioneer days in the Ohio and Wabash Basin, was and is yet a medical mystery.

Happily, it disappeared when the land was cultivated.

My mother was born at Circleville, Piqua County, Ohio, April 30, 1827.

She was of immediate Protestant Irish descent, although her grandfather on her mother's side was a McGrath and a great-grandfather was a McKenna.

Where is Hosta College?

Hosta College is in Piqua, Ohio.

That's the home of Captain Underpants, if you're into those kinds of things.

We've got some pretty heavy rain and storms, lightning, gusty winds.

I think I saw a gust of about 75 miles per hour.

Up there near Piqua, Troy area.

And we just heard Ron Otto mention that we now have a severe thunderstorm warning, I guess, for Montgomery.

Most mornings I'm preparing for my morning meetings or heading out to, you mentioned the rural areas.

We go all the way out to Piqua, north of Dayton.

We go all the way through Circleville down to Hillsboro and Washington Courthouse to the south and to the west.

So, you know, Amy Acton isn't the only one out here putting a lot of miles on her Jeep this campaign

And first, we are starting with Katie Kohler-Wagner.

She is running for Ohio House District 80, which includes Troy, Piqua, and goes all the way west to the Indiana border.

Katie is a 38-year-old mother, teacher, and lifelong advocate for doing what's right.

She and her husband are proud to raise their four children in District 80, instilling in them the values of hard work and community service.

I found out about it last summer.

And then this November, on November 3rd, which was an off day for their commission meeting because of the election, the following day, they passed the data center with an emergency vote, which got rid of anybody's chance of a hearing or even trying to put it on the That's when we were realizing that this is something that the community could come together in because they purchased 600

acres in Piqua.

I started informing everybody in Troy, which is where I am, and we're just south of Piqua.

They are going to be in for some changes as well.

It looks like road guy 51 was mentioning that he is going camping in one of the forecast for Piqua.

So 90 degrees by Wednesday, you do have a cold front that's going to work on through.

It will bring a chance for severe storms and the potential for some flash flooding.
