On vacation to Marion, Ohio, Debbie and I walked over to US President Warren G. Harding’s home. It is now a museum on one of the main streets and only a few blocks from city center.

I stood on the exact spot where he began his Presidential campaign. It was a spot that was quite famous ninety years ago, but now it is just a front porch on an old Victorian style house.

The next day we walked over to President Harding’s memorial. It was impressive and would look appropriate on the Mall in Washington, DC.

It is okay to follow in the footsteps of our Presidents.
