The Century Inn

2015 New England and MidWest, Ohio, Road Trip

 We discovered The Century Inn today as part of a geocache search at the location of the tollbooth on the old Cincinnati & Hamilton Turnpike. Although we haven’t yet uncovered the cache, it was a fine thing to discover a part of Hamilton County history that links into family genealogy and much of the American history we’ve been delving into recently. All this was on the way back from Kroger’s in Glendale getting things for today’s reunion as well as canned Skyline, Frisch’s tartar sauce, and Glier’s goetta to fuel further travels!
