Thanks for sharing. Lincoln has always been a hero of mine and the odds are good I’ll never make it to Springfield, IL, so will have to share your pictures. In fact, I enjoy all the pictures you and Steve share of your travels. You go such diverse places and take the time to stop and do the tourist thing so you keep things interesting. Hope you both keep traveling and keep sharing for many years to come.

Nice story. I must have missed something while gone. Does Steve still write?

It’s probably a very good thing that it was just a bust of Lincoln’s head on display, and not a full body statue. After your photo, I’m not sure Sioux Falls’ statue of David or in a pinch, the T. Denny Sanford statue in front of Sioux Valley Hospital will ever be the same. Maybe I shouldn’t have said “in a pinch”.

The spot above Lincoln’s fireplace would be perfect for a 60-inch Hi-Def, 3-D television. The old boy would have loved it four score times seven.
