Tidbits for Oct 7th

Louisburg Cider Mill:  Vivian and I stopper here on the way to Ft. Scott last Friday. The hot, fresh cider and cider donuts were wonderful!

Ft. Scott, KS:  Had a great time in Ft. Scott over the weekend with my niece.  We stayed at the Courtland Hotel which was built in 1906 for the railroad workers passing through. It isn't fancy but clean and had lot's of charm.  The furniture was a mix of antiques and stuff from the 50's but the bathroom was current. I didn't realize there was so much history in the area!  Besides a fully restored Fort Scott Military post, there was the Mine Creek Civil War Battlefield and a Civil War Massacre site - all very interesting.
