 Santa knows where to find all the best and hottest smartphones just in time to make this Christmas better and bigger than ever. Better service, bigger savings, that's today's Appalachian Wireless. It's Christmas time in the mountains and last night the traditional beauty of the season was on full display at the historic Dan Davis house in Painesville. Nestled on the banks of Paint Creek where US 23 crosses US 460, the 19th century home is a highly visible reminder of the region's past, but few alive today have seen the interior in its original beauty until last night. We had finished work on this project here last year so we wanted to open up this house to the public so that they could view the home of Dan Davis who built this house in 1889. In recent years the historic home has taken on a second life as the headquarters for McDonald's of East Kentucky. Company owners Bob and Tom Hutchison made it their mission to restore the home to its original splendor, making it a showcase for the region's history and to the man who built it. Daniel Davis arrived in Painesville in 1881 and took full advantage of that pivotal moment in history when the region's agrarian past met the industrial revolution to build a business empire rivaling that of John C.C. Mayo. We felt like this could be our contribution to society here in East Kentucky as well as Painesville and Johnson County and the preservation of history and people such as Dan Davis I think is vital to have so that young people and people coming into the area and people who live here can see what a sacrifice he made and how hard work paid off for him and people can learn his story. But while business and history are always evident at the Dan Davis house last night the focus was on the yuletide. It's that festive time of year it's the holiday season it's Merry Christmas it's every day's Merry Christmas and every day should be Christmas. Reporting in Painesville I'm Ralph Davis for EKB news.
