After 4 years without a grocery store in the county, one is to open this fall. Check out this podcast:

Long time coming. Glad to see my neighbors finally getting some relief.

Had my first visit to the new grocery! Very nice. Good produce and meat selections. Clean. Prices seemed reasonable. My only concern is too darn much progress in the county. Last time I was there was April of this year. Now there's a grocery store AND a hardware store. A name-brand hardware store to boot. And some huge power line evidently bisecting the county. Gene Engle bought the dump just north of the stop light and tore it down and now it's primed for yet more commercial development. Next thing you know they'll get a second stop light in the county. Progress is bad, very very bad.

And there’s that 2,000 acre, 125 megawatt solar farm being built north of McArthur on land that had been a coal mine. Another sign of progress, and one that I support. Right now, the largest solar farm in Ohio is 20 megawatts.

I hadn't heard about that. Approximately where?
