    Yes We Did Another Museum

    So on the long drive home from Ft. Leonard Wood we needed to stop and stretch our legs.  We chose to stop in Springfield, IL and see the Lincoln Library and Museum.   We were there for about two hours seeing the museum and having lunch.  Here’s some photos for you…  want more?  Click on one and head over to my Flickr.

    Areas where I could take pictures was limited in the museum. Outside was cold as we drove snow from Missouri to get there!

    Until next time!
