Very interesting re:a black man rose from being a slave to a prominent businessman.
This is a must do for anyone who loves learning about history. The house was staged well for the time period. The guide was helpful and knowledgeable. There are lots of signs with extra information about Mr. Ford. Not only is it informative and interesting, it is convenient! It is right next to Main Street and easy to get to.

Buy Epic Day pass or Summit Value Pass (w/ black out dates)
It will save you time and quite a bit of money. Purchase no later than Sep of the upcoming ski season.
If you are skiing for more than 1 day, get epic day pass. You need all mountain access and choose with holiday or without holiday.
You have access to Vail, Beavercreek, Breckenridge and keystone all in driving distance.
Summit value pass is good for non-holiday use, if you are skiing for more than 4-5 days and would ski at breck or keystone only.
