Lincoln Museum


The Fischer's and the Lincoln's mingle at the Museum.
Can you see Lois and Georgia in this group?


The old train station in Springfield IL is where we bought our tickets for a wonderful experience.
When we walked in the Lincoln Museum today, we first headed for the introductory presentation with holographs. The special effects were amazing, making our seats shake when cannons went off.
Lois said, "The is one of the best presentations I have ever seen, anywhere."
Everything presented here is world class. The two sides of the museum feature the pre-presidential years and the White House years. Lincoln's entire presidency was taken up with the American Civil War. His life and presidency ended only weeks after the war had ended.
The impact that Lincoln has on us today is simply awesome. The crowds that came to the museum today prove that his influence is still with us 144 years after his death.
