If you are in the Indianapolis area, make a point to stop by and tour the Benjamin Harrison House!
We stopped by not too long ago and really enjoyed our tour. The house is full of authentic relics associated with Harrison. In fact, we were impressed with the number of authentic items, and the general lack of repros.
The house actually allows a good amount of access to the building ,and our tour guide was much more casual than at some similar sites. The experience was more comparable to visiting a friends home than touring a presidents house.it was funny, our tour guide was from Indiana, and the only other couple touring the house was from Illinois, and we were representing Kentucky. We had a playful argument about which state had the best claim to Abe Lincoln.

I have mentioned my love for Indianapolis many times on this blog, and places like this reinforce my feelings for this great town.
