Our Presidential body count so far on this vacation:
- Rutherford B. Hayes, in the verdant park behind his lavish museum in Fremont, OH
- Millard Fillmore, in the same well-kept Buffalo cemetery as several Famous Names in Black History
- Chester Arthur, in a dusty corner plot in Albany
- Martin Van Buren, in an ancient burial ground a mile from his Dutch home church in Kinderhook, NY
- Franklin Delano Roosevelt, on the grounds of Hyde Park
- Grover Cleveland, alongside his fellow presidents of Princeton University
- James Buchanan, alone on a hill in Lancaster, PA
- William McKinley, under a seven-story dome in Canton, OH
…and now, two hours from the William McKinley Memorial and 3½ hours from home, we wended our way through a maze of lazy country highways and one construction detour to reach the final American President on our week-long tour. We had not saved the best for last.
