Touby Cousins 2018: Yellow Springs, Ohio

September 10-13, 2018
We all stayed at the beautiful Arthur Morgan House B&B which was like living in the pages of Architectural Digest magazine!  It was so comfortable for our group of twelve ... wonderfully furnished and appointed ... every space perfectly balanced in design, scale, color and texture.  Every detail of guest comfort was considered, from luxurious robes in our rooms to interesting books in the living room.  Original art graced guest rooms and common spaces.  Christina's breakfast each morning consisted of fruits, a special egg concoction, and pancakes - never the same way twice - and several pots of coffee.  On our last morning she surprised us with a miniature carrot cake muffin topped artfully with a swirl of cream cheese frosting.  We were well-fed!

We explored regional Native American history at SunWatch Indian Village, then on to Carillon Brewing Company where Mark and Pauline joined us for lunch and some historic brews.

So glad we went to the Funk Music Hall of Fame in Dayton!  We finished up with a little air guitar!!

 

We did a fair amount of eating, and Yellow Springs had a great selection of unique restaurants.  We sat outdoors on a perfect evening at Winds Cafe.  Then the next night went to Calypso Grill and Smokehouse which specialized in Latin and Caribbean fare.
