It’s not

magic I

t’s safe to say that we are not surprised when we flip the switch and our lights come on. We are surprised, disappointed — even angry — if they don’t. California recently went through an unusual once-in-a-decade heat wave. Despite paying among the highest rates in the country for electricity, hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses had their electricity supplies turned off because of a power supply shortage.

The event followed a disaster last year in which power to millions of consumers was shut off because of the threat of wildfires in areas of the state where the grid was poorly maintained or where trees had not been cleared away from high-voltage power lines. The recent electricity blackouts in California are a prime example of getting what we vote for. The Golden State has adopted policies that have forced power providers to close fossil and nuclear power plants, while relying on intermittent renewable resources supplemented by imported power from neighboring states. Basic grid maintenance has been deferred in favor of more politically popular initiatives. Californians hoped that it would all work out.

Predictably, solar power supply plummets in the evening, when the sun goes down but when demand remains near its highest. Neighboring states have less excess supply to share during a heat wave. The result? The combination of poorly considered but politically popular policies and the limitations of renewable energy resources created rolling blackouts, leaving millions of Californians without power during some of the hottest evenings in years.

In comparison, Ohio’s electric cooperatives’ dependable “all of the above” approach to power generation — coal, natural gas, biomass, hydropower, and solar energy — means that electricity is available 24/7, and at affordable rates. It’s not exactly rocket science, and it’s certainly not magic. Power supplies need to be planned in order to be resilient under a variety of conditions, especially during extreme weather.

If we don’t vote, we get the polices for which others vote; but don’t take my word for it.

Penn State University estimates that approximately 138 million Americans voted in the 2016 presidential election — only 58.1% of the nation’s voting-eligible population.

According to PBS, Ohio voter turnout in the 2016 presidential election was 4% lower than in the 2012 race, yet rural counties saw a spike in voter turnout.

In the 30 elections that took place between 1900 and 2016, Ohio voters cast ballots for the winning presidential candidate in 28 of them — more than any state in the country.

Please be sure that your vote gets counted this year.

POWER LINES

COVID rules Co-op pandemic adaptations help keep members and employees safe, maintain reliable power.

BY JEFF MCCALLISTER

AJ

Atkinson arrives to work at Carroll Electric Cooperative in Carrollton the same as he has every day since he was hired as the coop’s manager of marketing and member services — but it’s different lately.

In the months since the COVID-19 pandemic began disrupting normal life, electric cooperatives across the state and around the country have made adaptations big and small to keep electricity flowing, and some of the changes could be permanent.

“I think everyone understands that it’s important to do what we can to help contain the virus,” Atkinson says. “People may have thought this was more of a city problem early on, but rural areas are now seeing the effects of the disease, and people are doing their part.”

At Carroll Electric, that meant a new office schedule that included a rotation of staff members working remotely so that those in the office would be able to maintain plenty of distance. While the full staff has now returned to a normal five-day on-site week, all are expected to wear masks when on the grounds, and office hours have been reduced to try to further limit close contact through the day.

At Midwest Electric in St. Marys, the entire staff went to a remote schedule at the onset of the pandemic, and General Manager Matt Berry says that the change went off without a hiccup. The staff has since returned to a schedule of three days in the office and two days remote, which has reduced the number of staff physically present by enough that masks are only required in common areas.

Adams Rural Electric employees are required to wear masks in their West Union office unless they are in their personal office with the door closed. Social distancing is

required, and occupancy limits have been assigned to every room in the building. “We’re also having employees report no more than 10 minutes before their start time, and they go directly to their office or their vehicle, so we can limit the amount of close contact,” says Erika Ackley, manager of finance and administration.

Guernsey-Muskingum Electric Cooperative also had employees work remotely at the beginning of the pandemic. General Manager Brian Hill says the co-op had high plexiglass barriers installed around cubicles and open spaces so employees could return to working in the office. “We had hoped this was going to be a temporary issue, but it looks like a lot of our changes will be more permanent in nature,” Hill says.

Pandemic response has also meant broad changes in the ways line crews, service techs, and even vegetation management personnel do their jobs.

Several co-ops now have their linemen report for staggered start times to their shifts to limit the number of people in common areas at the same time. Formerly, crews rode out to jobs in the same vehicle; now, in many cases, each lineman travels to work sites in a separate vehicle.

“Our linemen are having their morning meeting remotely via Zoom,” Berry says. “They get their job assignments electronically, then drive directly to the job site individually in their own co-op vehicle, and they’ll come to the office only if they need supplies.”

Changes have not been limited to the distribution cooperatives around the state. The co-ops get the majority of the electricity for their members from the Cardinal Plant in Brilliant, Ohio. Knowing that an outbreak there could have devastating effects on the plant’s ability to continue delivering that reliable power, Plant Manager Bethany

Schunn implemented new protocols — in addition to alreadystrict safety measures — early on in the pandemic.

All employees, contractors, and the limited number of visitors to the plant must have their temperature taken at the security gates before they’re allowed on the grounds. Schunn and her staff also restricted access to all of the plant’s control rooms, changed various dayshift employee schedules to rotating shifts to ensure adequate department coverage, and initiated weekly COVID-19 update calls between plant and corporate management.

“We knew we had to stay on top of this thing from the start,” Schunn says. “Of course we’re following all CDC guidelines, but lots of times we go well beyond because we know our members count on us to stay up and running.”

Top two photos: Among several COVID-related measures, Carroll Electric Cooperative provided co-op branded masks for employees to wear while at work. Above and below: Employees at the Cardinal Plant implemented safety protocols early on to ensure the plant stays up and running during the pandemic.

Clogged, Backed—up Septic System…Can anything Restore It? Dear Darryl DEAR DARRYL: My home is about 10 years old, and so is my septic system.

I have always taken pride in keeping my home and property in top shape. In fact, my neighbors and I are always kidding each other about who keeps their home and yard nicest. Lately, however, I have had a horrible smell in my yard, and also in one of my bathrooms, coming from the shower drain. My grass is muddy and all the drains in my home are very slow.

My wife is on my back to make the bathroom stop smelling and as you can imagine, my neighbors are having a field day, kidding me about the mud pit and sewage stench in my yard. It’s humiliating. I called a plumber buddy of mine, who recommended pumping (and maybe even replacing) my septic system. But at the potential cost of thousands of dollars, I hate to explore that option.

I tried the store bought, so called, Septic treatments out there, and they did Nothing to clear up my problem. Is there anything on the market I can pour or flush into my system that will restore it to normal, and keep it maintained?

Clogged and Smelly – Mansfield, OH 6 OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • OCTOBER 2020

CO-OP SPOTLIGHT

THE FRONTIER POWER COMPANY

L

ocated in Coshocton, in the Appalachian foothills, The Frontier Power Company employs 39 people and has a service territory reaching into seven counties. Most of their 9,045 members are in Coshocton and Tuscarawas counties, with more in Guernsey, Holmes, Knox, Licking, and Wayne counties. In addition to the electric cooperative, Frontier Power has a management agreement with several other businesses located on its property: Frontier Propane, a locally owned and operated propane cooperative; Frontier Supply, which incorporates an electrical and plumbing supply store; Whit’s Frozen Custard; Progressive Water; and Coshocton Coffee Connection.

Businesses and attractions The small businesses in Frontier Power’s service territory are as diverse and varied as the people themselves: Tool fabricating shops, glassmakers, teardrop camper manufacturers, hickory rocker makers, a coyote trap manufacturer, a reclaimed wood sign maker, a quilt finisher, a wildlife management business, and a fish hatchery all call Frontier Power’s territory their home. Local residents and travelers alike can learn all they need to know about raising koi at veteran-owned Amore’s Koi Farm or about how Twig Archery makes custom bows and arrows for customers around the world.

Cooperative-served businesses offer tasty and unique food items and meals, award-winning wines, and even specialty cheeses.

Sportsmen can find plenty to keep them busy while in Frontier Power’s service territory: Gamekeepers Retrievers is well known for training retrievers, River Greens and Hickory Flats are both challenging golf courses, and there are many bodies of water where you can spend a leisurely afternoon fishing. The Coshocton County Heritage Quilt Barn Trail is an excellent way to see the beautiful scenery throughout the hills of the county — Frontier Power employees hung the quilt squares as a service to the community.

Don’t forget a visit to the Old Stone Fort, reportedly Ohio’s oldest building, when you’re in the area. There are also a number of bedand-breakfasts and other cozy locations for overnight lodging.

Events Frontier Power is a proud sponsor of the annual Coshocton Hot Air Balloon Festival — a free event that features hot air balloons floating through the hills of Coshocton County, fireworks, and food vendors. Wings Over Coshocton is also a flying event held every few years at the Richard Downing Airport, another member of Frontier Power.

Giving to the community Since 2012, Frontier Power’s members have been giving back to the community through the Frontier Community Connection Fund.

To date, members have donated over $310,000 to community organizations. The Frontier Power Company also hosts an annual customer appreciation day for the entire community.

Approximately 1,000 people, members and nonmembers alike, are welcomed at the co-op for lunch and appreciation gifts.

Smashing pumpkins Jack Pine Studio has made a name for itself with spectacular handblown glass gourds.

STORY AND PHOTOS BY W. H. “CHIP” GROSS

10 OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • OCTOBER 2020

F

or only the fourth time in its more than century-long history, there will be no Circleville Pumpkin Show this year — yet another scheduling casualty of the COVID-19 pandemic.

No one is more disappointed than Jack Pine.

A master glass-blower and craftsman, Pine and his artisans create some 2,500 special pumpkins annually for the Circleville show. The exquisite works of handblown glass that have been purchased by showgoers are cherished in homes throughout the Buckeye State and many states beyond.

Born in rural Tarlton in southern Ohio, Pine began studying glass-blowing decades ago in Seattle, Washington, and says he’s still perfecting the process to this day at his studio in Laurelville, where he’s a member of South Central Power Company. “I knew I was in love with glass-blowing from the start, as it involves everything I enjoy as an artist,” Pine says. “It’s a mystical medium, and I was drawn to it immediately. You take a glob of hot, molten glass from the furnace and turn it into a gorgeous work of art — that initial experience was magical to me and continues to be.”

Years ago, while still in Seattle, a friend asked Pine to make a glass pumpkin, so he crafted a traditional orange pumpkin with a green stem. “It looked pretty good,” he says. “That’s when I remembered the Pumpkin Show back home in Ohio and a light went on in my head.”

Pine attended his first Circleville Pumpkin Show in 1994; he brought several hundred small, glass pumpkins with him and sold every one. “I even sold a few broken and cracked pumpkins that people knew were damaged. It didn’t seem to bother them, and that’s when I knew I had something special.”

Initially, Pine didn’t think folks would pay much more than $30 to $40 for a glass pumpkin, but today he has pumpkins at every price point. Some of his more elaborate and elegant creations sell for hundreds of dollars, with his most expensive pumpkins priced at $1,200.

His palette has also evolved to include a rainbow of colors. What makes Jack Pine pumpkins so beautiful is the technique he’s perfected of iridizing glass to give the exterior of his creations such lustrous, bright hues.

“The more elaborate and more non-pumpkin the colors, the more people seem to like them,” Pine says. “After traditional orange, white is our most popular color. White goes with most any home décor, and people seem to appreciate its elegant appearance.”

This would have been Pine’s 26th year exhibiting at the Circleville Pumpkin Show.

Since that’s not possible this time around, a visit to his studio — open year-round — is well worth the road trip. Along with daily glass-blowing demonstrations is a gallery of Jack’s work and the art of 25 other artists from throughout the country, all of which is for sale. You can even attend a hands-on “experience” glass-blowing class, as Jack terms it. His merchandise is also available at www.jackpinestudio.com.

Keeping with the natural beauty of the Hocking Hills, Pine plans to combine his love of both glass and ceramics by creating wild seeds and seedpods on a largerthan-life scale. “I’m thinking I’d like the finished product to be the size of a table’s centerpiece,” he says. “The seedpods will be made out of ceramic and the seeds out of glass. I love working in both mediums, and it seems a natural fit.”

Not surprisingly, Pine has high praise for the Circleville Pumpkin Show and its management. “I’m very thankful for the town’s continued support of me and my artwork,” he says. “They helped me get started years ago — gave me a chance — and I will be forever grateful. I look forward to seeing everyone back at the show again next fall.”

The Walleye Fall Brawl is Ohio’s largest fishing derby.

fishing has done for me through the years. That’s why there is 100% payback of all the entry fees to the top five derby winners.”

Nearly 8,000 anglers participated last year, and Murphy anticipates as many as 10,000 will this year, each plunking down $30 for the privilege. Do the math, and that’s $300,000 in prize money that gets split five ways.

I

f you’re an angler, how would you like to catch one walleye worth over $100,000? James Atkinson Jr. of Streetsboro did exactly that last fall, his whopper walleye weighing 12.395 pounds and measuring 31.5 inches.

What has become known as the Walleye Fall Brawl began a decade ago when a group of 50 friends each tossed a few bucks into a pot as a friendly wager to see who could catch the largest walleye. From that simple beginning has steadily grown the largest fishing derby not only on Lake Erie but in the Midwest — and possibly the entire country.

The Fall Brawl is coordinated by Frank Murphy of North Royalton, who volunteers his time — lots of it. A fisherman all his life, Murphy says, “I just want to give something back to the fishing community for what

Here’s how the derby works: Once an angler has paid the entry fee, they then have six weeks to fish as much as they want, anywhere in the Ohio waters of Lake Erie.

The 2020 Fall Brawl begins Friday, Oct. 16, at 12:01 a.m., and ends Sunday, Nov. 29, at 8 a.m. “That’s a month and a half of fishing opportunity, including seven weekends,” Murphy points out.

It’s a one-walleye-takes-all contest, determined strictly by weight. Anglers are allowed to weigh as many walleyes as they’d like, but all the fish must be officially weighed at only one location: Erie Outfitters, a bait and tackle shop located along the south shore of Lake Erie, just west of Cleveland in Sheffield Lake.

Murphy chooses to hold the derby in autumn for two reasons. “First, because walleyes are packing on weight this time of year,” he says. “They just keep getting heavier as fall goes on, which builds anticipation in the derby week by week. The final few days get crazy, with people fishing nonstop, around the clock. Second, there are constant fishing tournaments on Lake Erie in the spring through summer, but very few during fall, so I

thought fall was the perfect time.”

By the way, those anglers finishing in the top five spots must pass a polygraph test before collecting their winnings. Two of the initial top-five finishers last year flunked and were disqualified, allowing Atkinson to move up and claim the top prize. “I believe the polygraph requirement is one of the main reasons the Fall Brawl has grown as big and quickly as it has,” Murphy says.

“Fishermen know it’s on the up-and-up, and that the rules are strictly enforced.”

Atkinson caught his winning walleye on the day after Thanksgiving, trolling a plastic minnow-imitation lure he had hand-painted blue. He and a buddy, Matt Bunch, were fishing about 1.5 miles north of Cleveland when the big fish hit. “It was the only fish we caught all day,” Atkinson says.

Last year was also the first time Atkinson had entered the Fall Brawl, which goes to show that anyone can win — it only takes one fish. You don’t necessarily even need to be fishing from a boat. Most years, at least one of the top-five anglers manages to catch a winning fish from shore.

If you’d like to try your luck in the 2020 Walleye Fall Brawl, registration is open. Details can be found at www.lakeeriefishingderby.com.

This is what a $100,000 walleye looks like; holding his 2019 first-place, prize-winning catch is James Atkinson Jr. of Streetsboro. Above: Yet another large fall Lake Erie walleye comes to the net.

GUERNSEY-MUSKINGUM ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE CURRENTLY SPEAKING

MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER

October

is National Co-op Month

A

s an electric cooperative, our top priority is to provide safe, reliable, affordable energy to you, the consumer-members, we serve. Because we are a coop one of our missions is to serve the long-term interests Brian Hill of our local community — and this mission has never GENERAL MANAGER/CEO been more critical than in the past few months. One of the guiding principles for all co-ops is “concern for community.”

This principle sets Guernsey-Muskingum apart from other electric utilities.

October is National Co-op Month, and electric cooperatives across the country are highlighting the many ways we “Power On.” Keeping this theme in mind, I recognize the essential role we play in serving a special community like ours.

Who would have thought that in March that COVID-19 would have put our community and our nation to the test like it has? The changing circumstances due to the pandemic have created both challenges and opportunities. Over the past several months we have all been challenged to operate differently. As an essential service, and to ensure reliability of your power supply, we modified our operations to safeguard business continuity. Our line crews and others began working in a more socially distanced fashion. Some line crews worked from home or were dispatched from home to keep maximum separation when possible. In the office, we modified cubicles and when possible, had employees work from home.

Our contact with members also changed, and we have missed the interaction directly with you. Our office closed for walk-in and drive-through traffic to limit the possibility of any spread of the virus. I admit it was difficult to not allow our members access to the building and to our employees. On Aug. 3, we opened our drive-through, and we will be evaluating when we re-open the lobby for walk-in traffic.

For our members impacted by COVID-19 who needed help with their electric bills, we waived late fees and worked with those people hardest hit to make special payment arrangements. Through all this time, we have worked to “Power On” as best we can.

Our business is keeping the power flowing to you, our consumer-members, but our passion is bettering our communities. With that said, watch and see if GuernseyMuskingum can find new ways to better our communities in the future. If you have ideas on how we can be a part of bringing a better way of life to southeastern Ohio, please reach out to me. Thanks for all you have done for your neighbors through this crazy year so far. That is in the spirit of National Co-op Month — “concern for community” is what makes us all so strong.

GUERNSEY-MUSKINGUM ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE CURRENTLY SPEAKING

Basements and crawl spaces are key areas when you’re looking to improve the energy efficiency of your home. If you have a forced-air heating system, your basement or crawl space has opportunities for improving ductwork. Unless you’re in a newer home or the ductwork has been tested and sealed in the last decade, your ductwork is likely leaking.

Ray Crock Sealing these leaks helps your system distribute air more efficiently and should make your home more comfortable. The best way to seal ducts is with duct mastic. Metallic tape is the next best solution. Do not use duct tape.

An energy auditor or HVAC professional can test your home’s ductwork and identify any leaks.

As you look at the ductwork, ask yourself if rooms throughout the home are heated or cooled unevenly.

If so, you’ll want to enlist the help of a professional.

Sometimes minor modifications to the ductwork can make a big improvement in comfort.

Moisture is a common problem in basements and crawl spaces and can lead to mold, rot, and lowered effectiveness of insulation. As you make efficiency improvements, work to solve moisture problems as well.

Look carefully for signs of water damage or moisture buildup, such as rotting wood, mold, a stain on a wall or floor, or a musty smell. Any untreated wood in contact with a cement floor or wall could be rotting. Crawl spaces can be muddy or even have standing water in them if gutters or the slope of the landscaping drains in the wrong direction. Once drainage problems are solved, the crawl space should have a ground vapor barrier.

You should also consider whether radon or carbon monoxide could be a problem. Conduct a radon test through a licensed professional or purchase a DIY home test kit. Carbon monoxide problems can be deadly. If you have any type of combustion occurring in the basement or crawl space, whether it’s a furnace, water heater, or even a fireplace, make sure they have adequate ventilation and that you have working carbon monoxide detectors nearby.

You’ll find lots of air leaks in basements and crawl spaces, particularly where pipes and wires enter or exit the space.

Air often enters the home around the sill plate, which sits 20 OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • OCTOBER 2020

on top of the foundation. If you can get to the sill plate, apply caulk around it. You can also increase efficiency by sealing any gaps or leaks around basement windows.

Insulation is an effective tool for reducing energy use and improving comfort, but the insulation strategy and the installation must be done correctly to prevent mold or exacerbate moisture problems.

The place to begin in basements is the rim joist, which is right above the sill plate on the top of the foundation wall.

Rigid foam board can be carefully fitted between the joists.

You can insulate the inside of the foundation wall if you’re sure moisture is not leaking through the wall from the outside. Experts do not recommend fiberglass insulation in contact with the foundation, which was a common practice for decades. Instead, they prefer sprayed-on foam or rigid foam board applied directly to the foundation wall. A wood-framed wall can be butted up against the rigid foam and insulated with fiberglass or mineral wool batts. The bottom plate of the wall, which sits on the concrete floor, should be pressure-treated wood.

There are two ways to insulate crawl spaces. Over the past several years, the most common approach was to insulate under the floor with fiberglass batts. This allowed the crawl space to be vented to the outside, which alleviated any moisture buildup. If all the right moisture control and drainage steps have been taken, the crawl space can be unventilated, and the insulation can be applied to the foundation walls instead of underneath the floor. That said, there are pros and cons to this strategy, so do some research online or consult with a local expert.

Taking any of these steps can make your basement or crawl space more efficient. If you’re unsure about how to begin, enlist the help of a professional.

Stealing electricity and meter tampering are crimes Since August 1978, a revised Ohio law has been in effect covering theft of utility service and tampering with utility equipment. The statute provides that a person does not have to be seen tampering with a meter to be held responsible for such action. Prior to the revision in the law, it was difficult to prosecute a person for meter tampering unless the action was witnessed.

In addition, in prosecution for a user’s reconnecting a device that was disconnected by a utility, such activity now is considered prima facie evidence that the user intended to defraud the utility.

The law defines theft of a utility service as a first-degree misdemeanor if the value of the stolen electricity, plus any utility equipment repair, is less than $150. It’s a fourth-degree felony if the value is more than $150 or if the offender was previously convicted of the charge.

Tampering convictions carry similar penalties.

Tampering is defined as “to interfere with, damage, or bypass a utility meter, conduit, or attachment with intent to impede the correct registration of a meter or the proper function of a conduit or attachments.”

Conviction can bring from six months in jail and a $1,000 fine to five years in jail and a $2,500 fine.

Meter tampering costs all of us. It costs the cooperative, and it costs you. And it’s downright dangerous. If you witness someone tampering with an electric meter, contact your cooperative office. Stealing electricity is a crime, and anyone caught violating the law will be prosecuted.

Cryptid Ohio The Mothman cometh — not to mention Dogman, Grassman, South Bass Bessie, and a bevy of other creatures.

BY DAMAINE VONADA; PHOTOS COURTESY HAYES PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY AND MUSEUMS

CRYPTIDS [crip – tidz]: Animals or other creatures whose existence is only assumed or believed in based upon anecdotal or other non-compelling evidence.

I

n July 1913, some fishermen claimed they captured a strange creature near the Marblehead Peninsula. The animal resembled a sea lion but had several legs and spotted skin. Though they snared it with a net, the beast twisted free and dived back into Lake Erie.

Those fishermen weren’t the first — or last — folks to report the mysterious monster, whose nicknames now include “South Bass Bessie” and “Lake Erie Larry.” In 1817, two brothers found a scaly, 30-foot critter on a beach near Toledo; in 1892, sailors on a westbound ship saw a gigantic serpent with “viciously sparkling” eyes on Lake Erie; and during 1990, several people sighted a snake-like being with multiple humps swimming off Cedar Point.

Today, Ohio’s answer to the Loch Ness monster looms large in popular culture; it inspired the name of not only the Cleveland Monsters ice hockey team but also Cleveland’s Great Lakes Brewing Company’s Lake Erie Monster IPA, labeled with a glaring green serpent.

Since President Rutherford B. Hayes owned a Lake Erie island where his family vacationed, he quite possibly heard tales about South Bass Bessie. Maybe he even saw the creature (though he never reported it if he did). The Ohio native and his wife, Lucy, left the White House in 1881 and retired to a country estate that is now the Rutherford

B. Hayes Presidential Library and Museums in Fremont.

With a nod to Hayes’ enthusiasm for studying history and cultures, the museum is presenting an original exhibit — “Ohio: An Unnatural History” — that explores the state’s rich array of folklore creatures.

While mainstream science has never proven the existence of such cryptids, the stories surrounding them have survived for generations. “Legends have made Ohio cryptids part of local history, and they appeal to a wide audience,” says Kristina Smith, the museum’s communications manager. The exhibit features artwork by Dan Chudzinski, whose fantastic images deliver a beast of a show that will make you wonder if you might — or might not — encounter any of the following Ohio oddities.

Dogman of Defiance A canine-like humanoid that purportedly stood upright and brandished a stick hounded Defiance during 1972.

Seen only at night, the “werewolf” petrified railroad workers and townspeople alike. Dogman disappeared, but the lore endures.

Loveland Frog With sightings from the Little Miami River in 1955 to Lake Isabella in 2016, rumors about frog-faced things that go jump in the night persist around Loveland. The fabled frog even prompted a bluegrass musical — Hot Damn! It’s the Loveland Frog! — in 2014.

Mothman

Pukwudgie

Loveland Frog

Mothman of Gallia County Six feet tall with red eyes and 10-foot wings, Mothman was hatched in West Virginia in 1966, then apparently crossed the Ohio River to terrorize Gallia County. Some think Mothman portended the deadly collapse of the Silver Bridge connecting Gallipolis to Point Pleasant, West Virginia, in 1967.

Pukwudgies In Native American folklore, Pukwudgies are quillbacked creatures that shoot poison arrows and collect human souls. Longfellow mentioned Pukwudgies in “The Song of Hiawatha,” and they’re alleged to have caused mischief from New England to Ohio.

Melonheads Residents of Kirtland and Chardon contend that juvenile creatures with huge bald heads skulk around the woods.

Are they extraterrestrials? Products of a failed government experiment? Ghosts of orphans killed by fire? Nobody knows, but Wisner Road is their favorite haunt.

Ohio Grassman Ohio’s version of Sasquatch has been spotted in 66 of the state’s 88 counties. The hairy hominid seems especially fond of southeastern Ohio, where Salt Fork State Park hosts the world’s longest-running Bigfoot conference each May. “Ohio: An Unnatural History” runs through Oct. 31, 2021, at the Hayes Presidential Library and Museums. 419-332-2081; rbhayes.org.

The Squashcarver one side and the Indiana Pumpkin Growers logo on the other. Two years later, he was commissioned to carve an Indianapolis Motor Speedway design in a pumpkin that topped 400 pounds.

An engineer for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Smithhisler hasn’t had much in the way of formal art training (he had one drawing class as an undergrad at Ohio State University). As it turns out, though, engineering and pumpkin art are a perfect pairing.

Since his on-a-whim inauguration into a pumpkin carving profession, Smithhisler’s skills have taken him far: to the Bellagio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas; Philadelphia’s Longwood Gardens; Garfield Park Conservatory in Chicago; and the Country Living Fairs in Stone Mountain, Georgia, and Columbus. Franklin Park Conservatory, the Ohio State Fair, and various

Mammoth pumpkins become a canvas-in-the-round for co-op member Gus Smithhisler.

hen fall brings pumpkin season, Gus Smithhisler picks up his carving tools, eyes the possibilities, and gets busy.

Since 2002, Smithhisler, who lives just outside of Pataskala and is a member of Newark-based The Energy Cooperative, has turned pumpkins into art — and not just any pumpkins: Mammoth pumpkins that can grow from 300 to more than 2,000 pounds are perfect for this squashcarver’s canvas.

Smithhisler’s journey to “Gus the Squashcarver” fame began when his daughter was in kindergarten. He grew a huge pumpkin at her urging, then hauled their success story from Ohio to the pumpkin weigh-in at the Indiana State Fair. Over the two-day event, as Gus eyed the orangish bounty of soft-skin bigness, the muse hit. He recalls saying, “Someone should carve one.”

So, he did. In three hours, using an 8-inch hunting knife, Smithhisler carved the Indiana State Fair logo in

festivals are included on his Ohio resumé. In the mix of gargantuan greatness was an appearance on season six of the Food Network’s Halloween Wars and at last year’s Monster Pumpkin Festival in Pittsburgh.

Naturally, the Circleville Pumpkin Show, where monster pumpkins reign, is a given Ohio fit, but the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is another favorite gig. Over the three weekends of the annual Boo at the Zoo, Smithhisler carves six pumpkins, one each day, each one unique.

Because of his close-to-the-entrance setup, guests can follow his progress from when they arrive to when they leave. “It takes me about four hours to carve a 500-pound pumpkin,” he says.

Mammoth pumpkins can sag like deflated balloons or be lumpy in their massiveness, while others are almost jack-o’-lantern perfect. All are fair game. “I carve whatever shows up.”

shapes and anomalies within the individual squash. The stemless handle of a pumpkin might become a rooster’s eye; green streaks emerge as a lion’s mane.

Also, unless there is a specific order, such as a logo, he carves where the pumpkin takes him. Like Michelangelo, who saw sculptures in the stone before he chipped away marble, Smithhisler usually lets a pumpkin’s shape and colors reveal what it wants to be. “Because some pumpkins are gross and ugly or a beautiful orange, that affects the design,” he says.

With a mix of clay-carving tools and a filet knife, Smithhisler uses a subtractive technique, taking away pieces and slivers of pumpkin skin and flesh. “I create shadows and dimension with deep cuts,” he says. The effect of his work is a performance-art-meets-static-art venture. No matter the venue, pumpkin carving is a crowd-pleaser. For Gus, interacting with the audience and giving people a turn at carving is the best part of the job.

Working off guidelines made to scale to get proportions right, Smithhisler uses a soft litho crayon to mark what he envisions on the pumpkin’s surface. The soft skin is a major feature, as well as interesting

Since rendering the Indiana State Fair logo, his repertoire has included tributes to Jack Hanna, the Battle of Iwo Jima, and Smokey Bear. Nature and animals have been favored subjects since childhood, when Gus first started sketching. “The animals are fun to carve,” Smithhisler says, counting a gorilla and an eagle as his favorites.

Dragons are another specialty.

Eminent eight Producing plentiful presidents is a proud part of Ohio’s past.

BY DAMAINE VONADA

W

hy is Ohio called the “Mother of Presidents”? Consider this: Since 1776, there have been upward of 500 million Americans; some 12,000

served in Congress, but only 44 have been sworn in as President of the United States.

Of those 44, eight came from Ohio, and during the half-century between Reconstruction and the Roaring Twenties, seven of those Ohioans — all Republicans — dominated the White House and influenced the nation in matters great and small.

Since 2020 is a presidential election year and the 100th anniversary of the last time an Ohioan — Warren G. Harding in 1920 — won the White House, it’s an especially good time to take stock of the state’s eminent eight. We hereby present a compendium of Ohio presidents that includes destinations where you can learn more about their rare and remarkable lives.

28 OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • OCTOBER 2020

William Henry Harrison 9th President (1841) Born: 1773, Virginia Resumé: Joined Army in 1791 and sent to Ohio Territory to fight in Indian wars. Eloped with a Cincinnati land baron’s daughter; settled on a North Bend farm. Fought in Battle of Fallen Timbers. Victorious general, battles of Tippecanoe and Thames. Indiana Territory governor. Congressman. Ohio senator. U.S. senator.

PHOTO BY LAURA LOUISE MEYERS

Presidency: Whig candidate Harrison’s “log cabin” campaign introduced rambunctious rallies and catchy slogans (“Tippecanoe and Tyler Too”) to presidential politics. Delivered 105-minute inauguration address in a snowstorm; got pneumonia and died 32 days later.

Facts: First president to perish in office. Gave longest inaugural oration; served shortest term.

Must-see: Marked by a limestone obelisk, the Harrison Tomb in North Bend commands panoramic views of the Ohio River and three states. The nearby HarrisonSymmes Memorial Foundation Museum displays campaign memorabilia such as a soup bowl showing Harrison’s likeness. 844-288-7709; http://hsmfmuseum.org.

Limestone obelisk marking Harrison’s tomb.

Ulysses S. Grant 18th President (1869–1877) Born: 1822, Point Pleasant, Ohio Resumé: West Point graduate. Farmer. Businessman. Commanding General, Union Army.

Presidency: Pro Reconstruction and Fifteenth Amendment. Created Justice Department to fight for civil rights. Though a master military strategist, Grant was a raw recruit politically, and scandal-ridden appointees disgraced his White House tours of duty.

Grant’s boyhood home was slated for demolition in 1982, but was spared and is now owned by the Ohio History Connection.

Continued from page 29

Facts: First four-star Army general. First president to run against a woman. Valiantly conquered bankruptcy by writing his bestselling autobiography while dying of cancer.

Must-see: The U.S. Grant Birthplace was probably the nation’s first mobile home; after the Civil War, the Point Pleasant cottage toured the U.S. on flatcar. In Georgetown,

the U.S. Grant Boyhood Home and Grant Schoolhouse contain memorabilia ranging from the family cradle to his childhood drawings, and an animatron of Grant at age 15 tells visitors stories about his love of horses and favorite subject (math). 877-372-8177; www.usgrantboyhoodhome.org.

Rutherford Birchard Hayes PHOTO COURTESY OF HAYES PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY & MUSEUMS

19th President (1877–1881) Born: 1822, Delaware, Ohio Resumé: Lawyer. Brevet Major General, Union Army. Congressman. Ohio governor.

Presidency: Nicknamed “Rutherfraud” because of the hotly disputed 1876 election; Democrats conceded after Hayes agreed to effectively end Reconstruction by removing federal troops from the South.

Declined second term.

Facts: Helped establish Ohio State University. Installed first White House telephone; started Easter Egg Roll. Wife, Lucy, was first presidential spouse called “First Lady.”

Must-see: The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Library & Museums occupies Spiegel Grove, the sylvan Fremont estate where the Hayeses resided post-White House. The complex boasts the nation’s first public presidential library, and the splendid Hayes Home is chock-full of items — including beds, books, and Bierstadt paintings — they owned. “People come here curious and leave amazed,” says marketing manager Kristina Smith. 800-998-7737; www.rbhayes.org.

The family’s 31-room mansion is the centerpiece of the Hayes Presidential Library & Museums.

James Abram Garfield 20th President (1881) Born: 1831, present-day Moreland Hills, Ohio Resumé: Muleskinner. Professor.

Lawyer. Ohio senator. Major General, Union Army. Congressman.

Presidency: A dark horse candidate, Garfield won the 1880 election’s popular vote by a nose. He pledged to end the spoils system but shortly after taking office was shot, ironically, by a disgruntled office seeker. Garfield’s deathwatch was likely the nation’s first media event.

Must-see: The James A. Garfield National Historic Site in Medina, where he invented the front porch campaign at his farmhouse. “Train tracks ran through Garfield’s farm,” says Todd Arrington, site manager, “and 20,000 people came here to see him.” His widow, Lucretia, returned to the farmhouse and pioneered presidential libraries by building a beautiful addition to preserve his books, correspondence, and mementos, like the funeral wreath Queen Victoria sent. 440-2558722; www.nps.gov/jaga.

Facts: Last president born in a log cabin. Phi Beta Kappa. Could simultaneously write Greek with one hand and Latin with the other.

James Garfield invented the front porch campaign at his family house.

William McKinley 25th President (1897–1901) Born: 1843, Niles, Ohio Resumé: Brevet Major, Union Army.

Lawyer. Congressman.

Ohio governor.

Presidency: Made U.S. a global power by winning SpanishAmerican War. Open Door Policy with China. Shot by an anarchist at Pan-American Exposition.

Must-see: The National McKinley Birthplace Memorial in Niles looks like a Greek temple and houses a museum (330-652-4273; www. mckinleybirthplacemuseum.org). In Canton, the McKinley Memorial majestically surrounds his tomb and rivals any monument in Washington, D.C. The adjacent McKinley Presidential Library & Museum has the world’s largest collection of McKinley artifacts — including a diamond tiara obtained from Pawn Stars star Rick Harrison — and a family-friendly, interactive science center. “It’s the most unusual presidential library you’ll ever visit because the focus is not solely on a president,” says Kimberly Kenney, executive director. 330-455-7043; www.mckinleymuseum.org.

PHOTO BY DAMAINE VONADA

Facts: Last Civil War veteran in White House. A devoted husband, McKinley campaigned from the front porch of his Canton home, rather than leave his invalid wife. After his assassination, Ohio made McKinley’s trademark red carnation the state flower.

Left, the court of honor at the McKinley Birthplace Memorial in Niles is supported by 28 Greekstyle columns.

27th President (1909–1913) Born: 1857, Cincinnati Resumé: Lawyer. Solicitor general. Court of Appeals judge. Governor-general, Philippines.

Secretary of war. Supreme Court justice.

Presidency: Trust-buster; initiated Dollar Diplomacy; appointed six Supreme Court justices. His reelection bid bombed after Theodore Roosevelt ran as a progressive Bull Moose, but Taft achieved his lifelong ambition when President Harding put him on the Supreme Court.

Facts: First president buried in Arlington National Cemetery. Only person to serve as president and chief justice. At 300-plus pounds, Taft was a political heavyweight, but the story that he got stuck in a White House bathtub doesn’t hold water.

Must-see: Cincinnati’s William Howard Taft National Historic Site preserves the handsome house where he was born and raised, and guides tell visitors about his love of baseball. “Few people realize,” says Reginald Murray, acting operations chief, “that he started the tradition of throwing out the first pitch.”

Warren Gamaliel Harding 29th President (1921–1923) Born: 1865, present-day Blooming Grove, Ohio Resumé: Publisher/ editor. Ohio senator. Ohio lieutenant governor.

U.S. senator.

Presidency: Promised “return to normalcy” while campaigning in Marion from his home’s front porch. Championed civil rights. Established Budget and Veterans bureaus. Convened first disarmament conference.

Picked stellar cabinet members, including Herbert Hoover, but corrupt cronies spawned scandals — particularly Teapot Dome — that stigmatized him.

Facts: First president elected after women’s suffrage, making Florence Harding the first presidential wife to vote for her husband. First president to ride to inauguration in automobile. Lost White House china in poker game.

Must-see: Celebrate the centennial of Harding’s 1920 election at the Warren G. Harding Presidential Sites in Marion: the Harding Memorial, which houses the Hardings’ graves; the meticulously restored Harding Home; and the new Harding Presidential Library & Museum. Sherry Hall, site manager, says, “Harding ushered in America’s modern era, and the museum puts him and his presidency in context for the first time.” 800-600-6894; www.hardingpresidentialsites.org.

Brevet Brigadier General, Union Army. Indiana Supreme Court reporter. U.S. senator.

COURTESY OF BENJAMIN HARRISON PRESIDENTIAL SITE

Presidency: First billion-dollar budget.

Supported national forest reserves.

Expanded Navy to shore up national defense.

An unpopular tariff and tepid economy doomed Harrison’s reelection.

Facts: Great-grandfather signed the Declaration of Independence.

Grandfather was President William Henry Harrison, on whose farm he was born. First president to have White House Christmas tree. Last president with a beard.

34 OHIO COOPERATIVE LIVING • OCTOBER 2020

Must-see: Built by Harrison and his first wife, Caroline, in the 1870s, the gorgeous Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site is a textbook example of residential Italianate architecture. Its vast collection of Harrison artifacts includes a unique longhorn chair with a wildcat-fur seat. “The chair was a gift from a Texas rancher,” says site president Charles Hyde. “It’s pure presidential bling.” 317-631-1888; www.bhpsite.org.

The Harrison home originally was surrounded by 153 feet of fencing, but the pickets were taken as souvenirs by crowds that gathered for his presidential campaign speeches in 1888.

First Ladies National Historic Site, Canton

NPS PHOTO

The only museum dedicated to all of the nation’s First Ladies consists of two historic buildings: the Saxton-McKinley House, where William and Ida McKinley lived in Victorian splendor during the late 1800s; and an 1895 bank building that houses the National First Ladies Library Education and Research Center.

The site tells the stories of the 52 women who have fulfilled the role of First Lady with exhibits and experiences that range from their ever-popular dresses to Smithsonian films. 330-452-0876; www.nps.gov/fila.

The Saxton-McKinley House was built by Ida Saxton McKinley’s grandfather in 1841 and was inherited by the women in Ida’s family.
