Autumn 2020 ‘Happenings in the Hills’ can be viewed here!
The Autumn 2020 issue of “Happenings in the Hills” has been printed and contains lots of information about attractions and activities in and around our beautiful Appalachian hill country. Even though many events have been cancelled this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is still a lot going on. Janny Brizius is planning to have the 40th annual Christmas at the Cabin this year (Oct. 16-Dec. 14), including public hours there on Thanksgiving evening. And there’s a nice article detailing some of the history of the Cabin out on Cave Road. And though he is no longer with us, David “Boonie” Brizius continues to inspire stories that make us smile, like the one found in the Autumn 2020 issue.

David ‘Boonie’ Brizius: amazing life and wonderful legacy
By Ron Coffey
One of the nicest, funniest and most caring individuals to have graced us who knew him passed away on Christmas Eve 2019. David Boone “Boonie” Brizius, devoted husband of Janny and her life partner in the Magic Waters Theatre, the Haunted Hills, Christmas at the Cabin and C.A.M.P. (Constructing Assured & Motivated People), dedicated his life to bringing joy to others. Boonie was a talented magician who loved bringing smiles to faces young and old. Boonie was also a devoted Rotarian and was involved in numerous other organizations that aimed to bring more joy and opportunity for others.
I had the pleasure of attending Boonie’s 80th birthday celebration in Gahanna. I think the year was 2014. What I remember most is the great crowd that showed up for the celebration. Many were graduates of the annual summer C.A.M.P. program that Boonie and Janny were involved in since 1956. The purpose of C.A.M.P. is to provide a faith-based environment that encourages campers to get to know God by setting the foundation for them to learn to love themselves, become more confident, and find their “Special Spark”; in doing so, campers are enabled to use their abilities to become leaders of the greater community.
Boonie loved working with other people and making them smile. He loved using magic tricks to make points about life. He loved telling jokes about his days playing football. He and Janny loved their Ohio State Buckeyes. Mr. and Mrs. Brizius had a life-long love affair with Hawaii and went there whenever they could. They loved the theatre and were enthusiastic about putting on a show.
It’s hard to separate Bonnie from Janny as they had so much in common. They loved the Lord, they loved their family, and there’s no doubt how much they loved each other!
Boonie will be missed by many. He was trulyunique and left an indelible mark on those who knew and loved him.
A celebration of Boonie’s life took place Saturday, January 4, 2020 at the First Presbyterian Church, 457 Jefferson St., Greenfield, OH 45123. A special vespers service took place that evening.
We found some photos of Boonie doing his favorite things with friends and family and have posted them above.
R.I.P. my friend.

Christmas at the Cabin is in its final weeks for 2019, but as I sit and look around, it is amazing! The wonderul artisans have continued to replenish their wares and also sent new ones not sent before, and there is barely a place in the Cabin that is not simply crammed with those beautiful things, ALL FOR SALE! -- and yet it does not look junky – just SUPER FESTIVE!
