President William Henry Harrison, Cincinnati, OH., Aug 14, 2014 Post 1

The circle is now complete in that my daughter Patricia has made a presidential sites tour with me. I was so please that we could spend this time together. We had a great day and as usual we ( I ) wore myself out walking and taking pictures. We will start the day at the Tomb of President William Henry Harrison which is located at Cliff Road and Bower Road, Cleaves, Ohio in an area also known as Mt. Nebo, North Bend, Ohio along the beautiful Ohio River.
