Exploring the Boone County Courthouse

Early Ford Explorers are mighty rare now thanks to Cash for Clunkers almost a decade ago. And this is a very early one, wearing its first “face” (headlights and grille). It’s from the early 1990s. It’s hard to believe that’s 25 or more years ago now.

Margaret and I had just taken a photo walk in Lebanon, the seat of justice in Boone County, Indiana, and had stopped on the square for a pint of stout at the local brewery. We sat in the window and had a good view of the courthouse.

    Is it just me, or is that a really ugly building? The columns and gable look like an after thought, stuck on at the last minute. The gable itself looks heavy enough to crush the columns,

      Hm, I don’t know, it looks like a typical Indiana courthouse to me. Maybe I’m blind to how ugly they all are! Here’s a full view:

    Good choice on the stout. Heavy architecture demands heavy beer.

      Hadn’t thought about it that way, but I suppose you’re right!
