Yesterday and just in time for Lincoln's birthday, I found some photos taken in 1988 in Springfield, Illinois. This is at Lincoln's tomb:
We toured the house where Abraham and Mary Lincoln and their children lived:

We also toured the Old Capitol building in downtown Springfield:

Today is also my blog's 6th birthday.

Happy Birthday, Blog! What a wonderful way to celebrate.
So nice that you have these photos and also remembered today as his birthday. I liked it better when we celebrated Lincoln and Washington's birthday separately.(Call me old fashioned) Happy Birthday to your blog!
Well, happy birthday," Midlife by Farmlight"! Did you know Lincoln's body was moved several times because they were afraid of someond trying to steal it? I saw that on a documentary years ago. I couldn't believe people were like that even then. I guess the world has always had evil people!
Happy Blog Birthday...a day late!
I like your Lincoln tribute!
Happy birthday to your blog. It amazes me to see how small everything was back it the old days. I was in a small ghost town from the 1861's over the weekend, the county judges house was only a couple hundred square feet. He was supposedly the richest man in town.
Now so many people feel they need a 3000 square foot house for 2 people. We truly have become a materialistic society.
