Architecture and antiquities

I haven't been snapping many pictures of houses or buildings since entering the Midwest, but now that I'm on the National Road (first federally funded highway authorized by Thomas Jefferson in 1806), I find it hard to resist. Each of these quaint east Indiana towns have so much history, as well as, amazing examples of pre Civil War architecture.











Mansion House Pub east. 1836 sits in the boundaries of Centerville, a town celebrating its bicentennial this year.
