Tuesday, June 9, 2009

This morning we were just going to sit and “veg” all day. Then Tom looked at the map and saw that Lebanon, Ohio was just down the road. For the last 30 to 35 years all I remember about Lebanon was Tom telling me that during one of his golf outings to this area about the Golden Lamb in Lebanon, Ohio. It is an Inn and Restaurant and the oldest continuous operating Inn and Restaurant in Ohio. There have been many notable historians that have been here. Of our presidents 10 have visited. If you goggle The Golden Lamb you can learn a little bit more about it.

We arrived in Lebanon just after noon with our hunger in tact. Wow, what a historic old building this Golden Lamb is in. Everything about it is fantastic, from the restaurant to the bar to the upstairs rooms where notables have slept. The food was great and we truly enjoyed our lunch. They have many dining rooms, but the one we ate in is the oldest. I took many pictures of the Golden Lamb. I sure see why all these years that Tom has raved about this Inn. If your even in the area, I sure urge you to look it up and enjoy a tasty meal there.

A special note, Barbara is you are reading this, they serve teas the third week-end of every month during the summer. Some of the dishes are so very old, I am sure you would really enjoy this place.

After touring the city – we found ourselves a Meijer's store and shopped for needed items

Among the notables that have frequented and stayed at the Lamb are Jack and Connie Mansfield. When we were in our antique collecting and living mode we would frequent the Lamb to escape from the frantic pace of our 20th century jobs to the peaceful 18th/19th century. We are happy to see it is still in business and would second Nancy's recommendation to visit if you are nearby.
And we are glad you are enjoying some of the fun things in Ohio
