My husband and I joined our kids and our grandson at the Great Shelby County Fair last week. I grew up showing 4-H and always thought I knew what the fair was all about, until I went with my 17-month-old grandson! He was smiling all the way as we visited the many different animal barns. He would wave at them and giggle when they made noise. I don’t think he liked the chickens very much but the bunny rabbits brought a smile to his face again. We walked over to the horse barn (my old stomping grounds) and he smiled and waved all the way through the barn!

This week we passed the National Defense Authorization Act in the Senate. It’s the bill we pass every year to get resources to our military and to protect our national security.

The Intel plant in Licking County is going to create at least 7,000 construction jobs for union Building Trades workers over the next 10 years, and will help develop the semiconductor chip supply chain in Ohio and position our state to lead in this crucial industry.

Brother Javin, who is only a year older than myself, was my playmate in growing up years. Whether it was splashing in the creek, romping in the haymow, or picking endless quarts of strawberries, we were usually together.
