Sunday Morning Cruise (July 19, 2020)


Up on this sunny and very warm Sunday. For the first time in years, rode without a helmet. Not sure why (the heat maybe). Won't be a habit, was a different experience, but feel better and safer with one on. Made a stop in Fairborn at the old log house. Like that town a lot, and this is a unique thing to see.
Went back to George Rogers Clark Park. Saw the Daniel Hertzler House which was built in 1854. Daniel was believed to be rich, so robbers broke in and murdered him while in search of money on October 10, 1867. Guess having one of the bigger houses in the area, was not such as good idea. I also got a photo of the monument and the remains with a photo of an old cabin also on the grounds. That cabin was there in the time the Hertzler house was built, as the old photo shows. Ride today was short and just covered 25 miles. Nice to get out in the wind though before the heat and humidity really gets bad.
