Took the family to Yoder’s Red Barn Ice Cream for food & Ice-Cream. Boy, did it hit the spot! After someone sent a message asking me if I get anything other that a Banana Split I decided to post a few pictures of what everyone ordered.
Believe it or not, I didn’t get the Banana Split this time. I ate a Double Cheese burger and sweet potato fries with marshmallow dipping sauce and topped it off with a Root beer float. That was so amazing!
The boys played “Heads Up” while eating a cheeseburger, fries, nachos and fried pickles along with a chocolate milkshakes for each, a double delight.
My grandson had a lemonade slush, and a delicious sloppy joe sandwich. My wife had a barbecued pulled pork sandwich and cheesy tater tots and triple raspberry sherbet. If you have not tried the triple raspberry sherbet I highly recommend it. So delicious! The hot pretzel and cheese was so good and the coneys are the best in Ashland.
Having the park and putt putt golf nearby adds to the enjoyment of the afternoon, the cost for a family of good food and fun is minimal.
While eating this fabulous spread of summertime fun food, I found out that Yoder’s Red Barn may be getting a new building that actually looks like a real barn, but more on that when the time comes.
COLUMBUS, OH – On Tuesday, legislation introduced by State Rep. Melanie Miller (R-City of Ashland) and State Rep. Bill Roemer (R-Richfield) has been unanimously approved by the House Commerce and Labor Committee. The legislation modernizes the statutes authorizing the Cosmetology and Barber Board and updates statutes to harmonize the regulations and processes of the board to better serve licensees.
“This is simply a bill to standardize Ohio’s regulation of these personal appearance service providers to create a more efficient pathway for current cosmetologists and barbers as well as the many individuals moving into the field,” Miller said. “I am confident that these and other changes that update our code will serve to encourage the Barber and Cosmetology industry to grow and thrive in Ohio.”
The Cosmetology and Barber Board was consolidated from two separate boards in 2017, but Miller notes the law is not adequately adjusted to account for this merger.
Some of the highlights of the bill includes:
Creating a unified barbering/cosmetology school license, to eliminate duplicative application for facilities that teach both cosmetology and barbering.
Loosening regulations on license reciprocity from other states.
Reducing fines for disciplinary actions.
Establishing temporary pre-examination work permits for barbers.
Lowering the age to apply for a barber license or to start barbering school to 16 years of age
Eliminates a requirement that a barber student complete 200 additional hours of training before re-taking the licensing exam.
Preventing the board from charging interest or penalty fees for unpaid fines.
Creating an independent contractor license, eliminating “shop within a shop” licenses
Creating a process to designate a license as “inactive.”
Allowing the board to independently set the passing score for the barber exam, rather than keeping it in statute.
Easing regulations for practicing a branch of cosmetology/barbering on a dead body in a funeral home or embalming facility.
Miller points out the bill does not include any changes to current training hour requirements for initial licensure.
The legislation now awaits further consideration in the Ohio House.

COLUMBUS – The House Ways and Means Committee has passed State Representatives Nick Santucci (R-Howland Twp.) and Melanie Miller (R-City of Ashland) Baby Products Tax Exemption Bill.
The bill will create a sales and use tax exemption for certain baby products, including children’s diapers, car seats, cribs, strollers, baby carriers and baby monitors. The exemption will ease the financial burden on Ohio families raising children.
“Rising costs have been hammering working families for the last few years,” said Santucci. “This legislation will help ease the financial burden of baby care on new parents and help families thrive in our state. I’m pleased this legislation passed through committee and look forward to the next steps.”
Additionally, the elimination of sales tax on these products will help ensure that Ohio families have access to the essential items necessary for the health and well-being of their children.
“This is a positive step towards supporting Ohio families and improving the lives of young children with this financial relief,” said Miller. “The bill helps address financial challenges Ohioans face by investing in our families.”
The legislation will now head to the House floor for a complete vote.
