Ohio

This is a mill that is still in operation near Dayton, Ohio.   Clifton Mill is famous for their corn meal.  The best I have ever eaten.   We went there regular while we were working there.  Beautiful location and good food.  Best breakfast in Ohio served in the restaurant with fresh ground meal for pancakes and biscuits.  They were the greatest and the pork in Ohio is so much better it must be that the hogs are all corn fed.  We bought corn meal and their special biscuit mix every time we went and we ate a lot of  cornbread and biscuits while there I can tell you.  The next picture is of the river and you can see how fast it  rushes by.  Seeing that river it is easy to understand how a gourge could be carved out by that rushing water.

       Lake and Waterfalls at Clifton Gourge     

This is a beautiful waterfall that seems to come from nowhere.  The lake is so scenic that photographers gather around it to try to capture the images from various light reflections at different times of the day.  You can be going along in this country and everything is flat fields and suddenly come upon a gourge like this one and it seems out of place somehow.  From corn fields to river gourge in a short distance.

                                 Golden Lamb Inn

This is the Golden Lamb Inn.  Ohio's oldest Inn has played host to ten U.S. Presidents and numerous authors and statesmen.  The first picture is the outside of the building.  The second is a picture of the lobby.   A very good restaurant and some of the best antiques you would ever want to see.   I had difficulty eating with so many antiques to look at.  The waitresses were dressed in period clothing.  It was very educational and enjoyable.   After you eat you can take a tour of the Inn and see all of the rooms.   The third picture is of the Charles Dickens room.  The Inn is located in Lebanon, Ohio.  It is halfway between Dayton and Cincinnati off hwys. #71 and #75.
