Day 11--traveling again

Another travel day....and it was raining off and on all day again....We started by stopping off at North Park University. This is a small private college which has affiliation with the Covenant church (which is where we go). It was a cute little campus outside of Chicago. Then along our way to Springfield, Illinois, we stopped in Pontiac to see the Route 66 Museum. It actually wasn't very impressive, but a good halfway point. When we arrived in Springfield, we went straight to Lincoln's home. It was amazing how many of Lincoln's original pieces of furniture it contained. It was a neat experience. Tomorrow is more Lincoln.

  1. Did you stop the Simpson's house while there in Springfield? Say Hi to Homer for me.
