Jack and Dotty Haskins: A 1932 Ford Coupe and 50 Years of Marriage

October 1, 2012

Jack and Dotty Haskins of Cincinnati Ohio spent the past weekend here at the L&N Bed and Breakfast completing a 20 day tour of Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, and Kentucky celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary in their orginal 1932 Ford Coupe.

What made this so interesting is that 50 years ago when they got married they spent their honeymoon touring the same places they did on their anniversary in the same 1932 Ford Coupe.

The were just having a great time touring in their 1932 Ford Coupe.

We were proud that they included the L&N Bed and Breakfast on their anniversary.

How can we help you celebrate a special occasion in your life?

Lucy Audubon Actress Impressed with Henderson

November 22, 2009

From the Henderson Gleaner, Saturday, November 21, 2009

Letters To Henderson Gleaner

Chatauquan impressed by Henderson

IMG_0118 Editor: Are there times when Henderson needs a little reminder of what a great community it has? In an age when often only complaints are brought to our attention, this letter will certainly serve as a terrific testimonial of how thankful citizens of Henderson can be for their warm and welcoming hospitality.
I had the fortune of visiting Henderson for the first time in October. I portrayed one of Henderson’s most famous former citizens, Mrs. Lucy Audubon, in a Chautauqua performance for the Friends of the Henderson County Public Library.

I have traveled for several years as a Chautauquan, and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the reception I received in Henderson.

Susie Thurman of the Friends of the Library, Norris and Mary Elizabeth Priest of L&N Bed and Breakfast, Alan Gehret of the Audubon Museum, many volunteers for the Friends and the Presbyterian Church, as well as the countless residents of Henderson who came out to see “Lucy” return home, all made my stay extraordinary. There was nothing I had to ask for, no help I needed that wasn’t offered before I even asked.
I was completely overwhelmed with the kindness that was bestowed upon me during my visit. I certainly look forward to returning to Henderson soon!

Kelly O. Brengelman Actress Kentucky Humanities Council Chautauqua “Lucy Audubon: A Kentucky Love Story”

Off to the Races!

August 7, 2009

Martin JohnsonThere are two indulgences Martin Johnson can’t wait for each  summer — attending Ellis Park and staying at the L & N Bed and Breakfast in downtown Henderson KY.

Johnson, who lives in Birmingham, Ala., is a long-time racing connoisseur who works through the school year as comptroller for a private school in downtown Birmingham. His wife, Janice, is a special education teacher. In the summer months they’re off to the races, visiting tracks around the globe.

"I’ve been to tracks from Arcadia, California to Moscow, but Ellis Park is one of our favorite places to go," Johnson said recently after finishing up a breakfast served up by L & N proprietor Mary Elizabeth Priest. "There’s a lot of history here."

Johnson Family Ellis Park is a horse racing track a short drive across the Ohio River from the city of Henderson, where the L & N Bed and Breakfast is located.
The Johnsons have been making the trip up to Henderson for almost 15 years.
 
"And we’ve stayed at the L & N for 12 consecutive years," Johnson said. After that first stay at the bed and breakfast, the Martins fell in love with its owners, Mary Elizabeth and husband Norris. And just why have the Martins returned to overnight at the same place for so many years?

"First of all, it’s a beautiful bed and breakfast," Martin said. "And second, they’re extremely nice people. We’ve grown very fond of them over the years."
Norris and Mary Elizabeth shower their guests with southern hospitality and uplifting personality. They try hard to make everyone feel welcome. Plus, they simply enjoy people.

"We’ve met all kinds of people here, and I think every one of them is interesting and they’re all good people," Mary Elizabeth said. "If someone has something to hide, they’re not going to sit down and eat breakfast with you."
 
What is your story of attending Horse Races at Ellis Park in Henderson?
