A lot of old New England inns have a similar bragging line: 'Washington slept here.'Indeed, the Father of Our Country has been reported to have stayed at a couple of places in the area, North Attleboro's Woodcock-Garrison House and the Lafayette House in Foxboro, both of which served as resting stops for colonial-era travelers. There's no proof our first president actually stayed in either location, but it wouldn't be a surprise if he did.That's why a new book, 'Travels with George,' caught my attention.
