Sure enough the group was founded right here in Greater Cincinnati. Daniel Carter Beard founded the Sons of Daniel Boone in 1905; that group would become known as the Boy Scouts of America.

Someone told us this was a best-kept secret in Covington (ya know, for people across the river), so one night for fun we piled the kids in the van and headed here.

I first time went here with our kids when the wife was out of town and I needed a fun, new spot for them to release some energy.

You don’t have to travel to Notre Dame to see a beautiful cathedral. Covington’s version was built between 1894 to 1915, and some say the church was never actually finished. One thing that was?

The Ohio River may very well be the best place to take in this secret. The banks of Covington are adorned with a series of large scale paintings called The Roebling Murals.
