For me with a lifetime immersed within the oil industry, a visit to the Drake Museum, the world's…read morefirst oil well and the birthplace of the oil industry, it's a holy shrine; the Mecca of the petroleum industry. It was here in 1859 that Edwin Drake using improvised salt water drilling equipment was the first man to ever drill for and strike oil. The well, only 69 1/2 feet deep culminated with a production of a mere 22 barrels of oil, but that meager amount was enough to then double what was then the entire oil production of the world. The importance of this well and Drake's achievement can in no way be underestimated in that it proved the means by which modern day society could establish itself with the necessary energy resources to develop into what it is today. Though small, the museum is all encompassing, complete and accurate in every detail. Not only does it give accurate accounts of Drake's original well which you can see first hand, but also the development of technology and oil recovery methods through the years, everything from primary to secondary recovery methods such as the use of nitro glycerin explosives along with their inherent dangers. Matter of fact, it is interesting to read that when a nitro handler suffered an inadvertent explosion, they didn't just report him as a death but he and his entire wagon or equipment as a "disappearance," because in fact the resultant effects of such a terrific explosion often did end up with a complete disappearance from the face of the earth. Besides being a good museum and an educational experience, the surrounding grounds offer a perfect park like atmosphere, tranquil and enjoyable for everyone.

Built in 1899, it was originally built as a storage facility for coal and feed. In the early 1900's it was converted into a lumber mill, then later used as a facility for teaching art classes to students in the area. The Art Loft was opened in 2008. The spacious open floor plan, 40 ft. loft ceiling, & rustic appearance, make for a perfect setting to house all styles of art. The gallery, a five room, ever-changing, malleable space, represents works by over 100 artists, exhibiting jewelry, sculpture, pottery, fine art, clothing and more.

Like others, we foolishly ordered our buffet from Meraki Living last October 2024, at which time we…read morepaid a 50% deposit; balance (per reqmnt) buffet was paid in full November 2024. We were promised our buffet by March 2025, to date, we have not received our furniture; no delivery date nor a requested refund. I would say our story is very similar to the experiences to King R. (05/2025), and Eugene B (05/2025). At this time we have initiated CC disputes; We will be contacting the State of Ohio's Consumer Affairs, BBB and State attorney's office and local Ashtabula authorities.

It's really unfortunate to see how many others have had the same runaround from Meraki Living. We…read morestarted the process with Olivia, who was very attentive in the beginning (before she had her babies), but once they received our full payment, all communication essentially stopped. We had to chase them down just to get any kind of update, often after multiple attempts. Delivery dates were repeatedly pushed back, but we remained patient. My husband and I genuinely understand that life can get busy--we even told this to Bill directly. All we ever asked for was consistent, transparent communication so that we weren't left guessing where things stood. A quick check-in, even to say "we're delayed," would have gone a long way in keeping our trust. Instead, we were left in the dark, forced to reach out again and again with no answers, and eventually, no responses at all. What really broke the camel's back was when I noticed that they had taken down all of their social media accounts--Instagram, Facebook, Etsy--completely gone. For a business, that kind of disappearing act raises major red flags and shows a complete lack of accountability. Thankfully, we paid through PayPal (credit card), which at least gives us a path for disputes and some peace of mind. For anyone who paid directly through their bank, you may want to seriously consider consulting a lawyer, because at this point, it's not looking good. Consumer tip: Always be cautious about paying in full upfront, and whenever possible, use a secure method like PayPal or a credit card so you have protection if things go sideways.
