President Hayes was the first stop on a weekend getaway. President Hayes is about a hour north of President Harding in Fremont Ohio. He had the first Presidential Library of any President. President Hayes was sworn in to office of President at the White House since March 4th fell on a Sunday. The public swearing in took place on March 5th. It is like that anytime a President is suppose to take the oath on a Sunday. The house he lived in with his wife Lucy is also on the grounds. What was amazing to me was that people were walking there dogs on the grounds of the Hayes Presidential Center.
