Wilmington, OH, September 6,2008. Warren County, near Cincinnati in SW Ohio, became the 80th Ohio County visited by Circuit Riders For Stratton.
Today's talks with local voters in South Lebanon, OH, capped off an historic 300 mile ride that included first time visits to Adams, Brown, Highland and Clermont Counties, plus a stop at the Highland County Fair in Hillsboro.
Because we are commemorating the 205th anniversary of the Ohio Supreme Court, we always ride with a sense of history. This particular ride was very historic because part of it followed the western path of the first Ohio judicial circuit riders over two centuries ago:
- We rode our big Harley out of Chillicothe, Ohio's first state capital, in a morning fog and headed toward Cincinnati.
- By 1800 Cincinnati had become a sizable frontier town with over 5,000 male inhabitants and was certainly a destination for the first judicial circuit riders.
- That number of male citizens had, by law (the Northwest Ordinance), allowed Ohio to petition and obtain statehood in 1803.
- Our feeling of history was confirmed when we reached The Bradford Tavern at West Union in Adams County.
- Built ca 1804 on the Maysville to Zainsville Stage Couch Route, the Bradford Tavern was certainly a must stop for all travelers in this part of the state.
- Today, the building is Ohio's longest standing inn still in use and is called the Olde Wayside Inn.
We finished the ride with stops at a reception for Justice Stratton and at the Clinton County Corn Festival, both in Wilmington. Thanks to Stratton For Supreme Court Clinton County Coordinator, Connie Roberts, and her husband, Max, for hosting us at both events!

Portsmouth, OH, September 6, 2008. It is hard to be the opening act for an Ohio Supreme Court Justice who doesn't need one. If you do it three days before she arrives in town, I guess it is OK.
Circuit Riders For Stratton were honored today when I was invited to address the 2008 Scioto County Republican Party Rally in downtown Portsmouth.
- In keeping with the Sarah Palin theme set by rally speaker and State GOP Central Committee Member Kay Ayres, I warmly thanked the audience and encouraged them to support the reelection to the Ohio Supreme Court of a goat tying champion, a tractor pull champion, a hiker and a fly fishing-person, whom they all know, love and respect, Justice Evelyn L. Stratton, otherwise known as the Velvet Hammer.
- John McCain's southeast Ohio Campaign Manager, State Senator John Cary, preceded me. So I put on my 'maverick' biker hat and asked the crowd of 50-100 people to ride with Circuit Riders For Stratton.
Thanks to everyone in Scioto County and especially to Stratton For Supreme Court Scioto County Coordinator, Rebecca Bennett, for arranging to have Circuit Riders For Stratton attend this event!
