Christmas outings ended on Friday with a trip to the Overlook Restaurant in Leavenworth, Indiana…
Less than an hour away… a pleasant drive with the sun shining…
Established in 1948 after the town had to be moved up on a bluff where it stands today… overlooking the Ohio River…
First it was a small grocery store/gas station… Later a Greyhound Bus Stop
… and then the Restaurant…
Not, crowded… was able to walk right in and sit down… when we arrived…
I grabbed a few photos of the Ohio River… the Restaurant sits right by… up on an “Overlook” …
View of River from deck…
The River takes a bend right in front of the restaurant…
Picnic tables for warmer weather…
There is the restaurant, pub and outside sitting for warmer days…
Very pretty!…
Our food here was delicious…
Hot Brown for my cousin…
Meatloaf for my cousin’s husband…
Reuben Sandwich for my sister…
and I chose the Chicken Pot Pie…
Of course there were sides… but, the warm yeasty rolls were a hit!…
Did we get dessert?…
We couldn’t resist…
Peanut Butter Pie , Coconut Cream Pie
( but, with 3″ high merengue) and Blackberry Cobbler A la mode
…
YUMMY, YUMMY, YUMMY!…
This was where our little family of my Mom, Aunt, Brothers/Sisters and Spouses used to come every Christmas …
With the passing of Mom, my Aunt, my Brother, my Sister and Sister-in-law… we hadn’t been for a few years… Bitter-Sweet for our hearts! …
but, just lovely!
