Google Robot Generated Info

Google and their robots insist that Ohio Valley Lines is open every Saturday and Sunday for visitors.

THIS IS NOT CORRECT!! One more time for those in the back: THIS IS NOT CORRECT!!

I have repeatedly tried to edit our hours as not open, even going so far as to mark us as "Permanently Closed". We are ONLY open for visitors during our posted Open House and Holiday Shows schedule and other special community events.
