Antique Road Show Article
Cincinnati Magazine June, 2000
Antique Road Show
At 5:30 on Sunday morning when the summer day still harbors a bit of chill, join the arrives of other early-risers in the hunt for the perfect collectible at the Burlington Antique Show. And while the show, which runs every third Sunday of the month through October at the Boone County Fairgrounds, may only be a short freeway shuttle from downtown Cincinnati, it's worth spending the night to make a completely antique weekend. Start Saturday by checking into Burlington's Willis Graves Bed & Breakfast Inn, an 1830's Federal style brick home named after the Boone County Clerk who built it.
You can stroll around the grounds and through the gardens, or relax in the parlor with a garden book from the terrific library. The simple interior is fitted with country and colonial antiques-many from the Burlington show and brick fireplaces with original mantles. The guest rooms are furnished with antique beds (two have four poster beds with handsome canopies). Following your morning antiquing on Sunday, there's nothing better than the wonderful breakfast served here on Spode china; quiche lorraine or luscious lemon yogurt waffles topped with whipped cream and raspberries along with fresh fruit and homemade breads.
