OHS Bookclub took a field trip to Pensive distillery and restaurant. Had a great tour of the distillery , the speak easy and then lunch. We even saw the bullet hole in the 100 year old wall paper, in the wall. Monmouth Street in Newport used to be popular hub of speakeasy’s, gambling and prostitution. We had read two books that included the activities of this area . The Ghost of Eden Park, Forbidden Fruit . Great outing with club members.

I would like to thank community members Mary and Russel Ward, Susan Putman, Dale Colonel  and Julie Bierman from Whitney‘s Mercantile, for loans of art, artifacts, or information to our recent exhibit, the Art and History of Clermont County Covered Bridges. It helped to make a great exhibit.
