Lincoln Presidential Library




My parents are visiting this weekend (Happy Anniversary to them).  Today we went to Springfield to the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.  As we have heard, the museum is quite good and modern, with very good multimedia.  Comparisons to the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum were inevitable.  They are similar, but the the Lincoln musuem was smaller - in fact we spent less time there than I had anticipated. The statues we posed with represent the Lincoln family before traveling to Washington for the Presidency. After that we made a quick visit to Lincoln's tomb and rubbed Abe's (bronze) nose for good luck.
