The Spread Eagle Inn and Tavern est. 1836 WARNING pic heavy!

[S.Kenton]

Wife and I took a day trip and picked up my Kibler Woodsrunner near Hanoverton Ohio, when we left we went to the above mentioned tavern. Man did it reek of historical coolness!! Food was amazing and service was above and beyond ( which is a rarity these days). The Inn was built around 1836 and is still in operation today, one can take your pick of four rooms to rent ( but reservations is a must) and dine with the top senators. We dined in the main hall, but roamed freely after our meal to see what all is actually there.. man there is a lot! I’ll let the pictures do my talking.

Cool pic of the prezez.

Very clever using the back of Lincoln's head.

He can't be mistaken for other presidents.

Digg'in Reagan's iconic bowl of jellybeans too.

If someone can make out the writing on the crate behind Teddy, let us know.

Top word is Republican.

Bottom word? Convention?

I actually was thinking the same thing.

One of the nicest things about this whole trip… I got to spend it with someone who appreciates stuff like this as much as I do… my wife!

Spread Eagle is a cool place to check out. Did you guys take the tour too? I live close and I’ve been there many times but didn’t realize all the really cool history of the place until my wife and I did the tour.

Very cool. How much time did you get to spend at Jim's?

ya know that,s what I miss about the county i moved from. so much Historical stuff and 90% of folks could not care what was in their backyard...

Im just venting tonight. So many little towns.....in the north east....Pa. Nj. Ny. where they were a focal point of the town and what the small things it produced to keep the region going. Stream,s and mill houses, stone block houses circa 1700,s. problem is that you cannot even think of getting one, too far priced out of the common man,s wealth. Plus restriction.s on dealing with towns on what and what you cannot do to the dwelling itself. I know Huntderdon, Warren, and Sussex Counties had /has plenty of these examples. If you exist currently on this type of property you have to have some $$$$ to keep it....
