While we didn’t see Marty McFly or Doc Brown, that was definitely a DeLorean we saw driving around Findlay on Saturday.

Curiosity got the better of us, so we tracked it down in the parking lot of a Findlay restaurant and talked with the owner.

It turned out that Craig Reinbrecht, from Sylvania, had a man from Delaware restore his DeLorean, and they were meeting halfway for the hand-off.

Craig was gracious enough to talk with us for a few minutes as he was getting familiar with his newly restored DeLorean.

“You know, they always fascinated me when they first came out, and like a lot of DeLorean owners will tell you, the movie Back To The Future just created a love for the car.”

He says his original intention was to buy a DeLorean and turn it into a time machine just like in the movie, but now he thinks he’ll just enjoy it as a DeLorean for a while.

Craig is a member of the DeLorean Club of Ohio and says fellow members have warned him about the attention the car brings.

“They say to always give yourself extra time if you’re driving your DeLorean to the store because it attracts a crowd.”

And then was evident while we were speaking with Craig and plenty of people drove by, and some got out to take a look and to talk to him about his unique ride.

We couldn’t leave Craig without asking about his favorite line from Back To The Future.

“Wait a minute Doc, are you telling me that you built a time machine out of a DeLorean?!”

The Ohio State University is creating a new way to help farmers deal with the stress and strain of keeping their farms running.

The university says the Rural and Farm Stress Task Force will help connect farmers with specialists who can help them learn more about keeping their businesses afloat or find jobs off the farm.

Specialists also will be able to help farmers find mental health providers.

Ohio State University Extension says farmers are facing more challenges with slumping grain prices, tariffs and an extremely challenging weather year.

The Findlay-Hancock County Chamber of Commerce recently got a presentation on how the extremely wet planting season is affecting farmers and the economy.

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine is dismissing a lawmaker’s proposal to use fentanyl to execute death row inmates as the state struggles to find a lethal injection method.

The Columbus Dispatch reports the Republican governor says the powerful synthetic opioid, which has led to thousands of fatal overdoses in Ohio, isn’t an option and likely would not pass “constitutional muster.”

Rep. Scott Wiggam, a Wooster Republican, is seeking co-sponsors for a bill to use fentanyl seized by law enforcement agencies for executions.

DeWine canceled the execution of convicted killer Warren Henness in January after a federal judge expressed concerns about Ohio’s lethal injection protocol.

Nebraska used fentanyl obtained from a pharmacy to execute a prisoner last year.

The Military Vehicle Preservation Association’s convoy of historic military vehicles made its way through northwest Ohio over the weekend.

The group is recreating the Transcontinental Motor Convoy, the Army’s first motor convoy across the country, on the 100th anniversary of the journey.

Retired Army Sgt. Mark Ounan is driving his restored 1918 Army staff car in the convoy.

“Five of these cars went on the original convoy in 1919, and Eisenhower was on that trip with the Army so he probably rode in one just like it.”

He says the reception in the Ohio towns they’ve been going through on the old Lincoln Highway has been tremendous, with plenty of people coming out to watch, salute and take pictures.

We caught up with Mark in Upper Sandusky on Saturday, as the convoy stopped at the high school for lunch.

The convoy left Pennsylvania on August 10th and is planning on arriving in California in the middle of September.

A committee is no longer recommending medical marijuana to treat autism and anxiety in Ohio.

The panel reversed course after hearing from experts.

Two experts testified in favor of its use and four experts against it.

They said the drug offers momentary relief from anxiety but can lead to panic attacks or worsening anxiety for some patients.
