Springfield was quaint and interesting... it was the smallest "capital" one can imagine. The Museum of the State of Illinois was new information.....who knew that Chicago was "suppose" to be part of Wisconsin! They needed another "northern state" so they pushed the boundary up.... With the Lincoln history LOTS of civil war perspective... MUCH different than what we saw in Charleston that's for sure !!!
The Lincoln Library and Museum was what you would expect too. 
Protestors against gay marriage were protesting at the capital all day. Very vocal group.and very good bagpipe playing !! It increased the drama of the message.
I spent time doing some of my consulting work in my office 
Now am headed to Glen Carbon to see my cousins and the new baby (Davey) .. my Stepsister from Alaska will also be there (Bobbie Nicole). Then home to Tampa for a nuclear family visit ! Next stops To Be Announced but headed WEST.....
