President’s Day in Rye, History All Around You
It's President's Day and American history abounds in Rye.
George Washington put down a few cold ones at the Square House. John Quincy Adams caught a few winks there on his way to the Continental Congress in Philly. Both were guided by the milestone markers (mile 24 and mile 25) placed on the Boston Post Road by Benjamin Franklin. And then there was John Jay.
Give your family a Rye history lesson today.
A patriotic video for Presidents day!
