Nope, this isn't Ada, but your parents might recognize it.
It's the Bluffton swimming pool and Buckeye quarry from the 1950s. Paul Diller snapped these photos.
The pool was on the east side of the Buckeye. It is included a bath house, baby pool, larger pool going to 5 or 6 feet, and the Buckeye quarry for persons who could pass a swim test. The Buckeye had three diving boards.
Meet Storm. Storm is a female black lab mix. She is 4 years old. Can you provide a forever home for Storm?
To give a dog a forever home, contact the Hardin County dog shelter. It is located at 49 Jones Road on the west side of Kenton.
Hours: 9 am to 4 pm on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. Phone: 419-674-2209.
Generally, about 20 to 25 dogs are available for viewing.
The shelter is also the place to contact for giving up a dog, if you find a lost or stray dog, or if you come in contact with a vicious dog. It costs $20 to surrender a dog, which pays for deworming and immunizations for when it is rescued.

There will be 34,000 other Scouts from 50 nations at the jamboree, which is held every four years. Thirty-six Scouts and four leaders from 16 troops of the northwest Ohio Black Swamp Council left two days early for zip lining and whitewater rafting on the New River.
The jamboree includes 10 days of outdoor activities and camping as well as water sports, climbing, mountain biking, four wheeling, hiking, zip lining, and community service.
