Abraham Lincoln was a wise man! :)
Beautiful photo (AS ALWAYS!!)

Thank you, Lynn. Lincoln was a wise man, yes. We're in Lincoln territory. Tremont was once the county seat -- during the time Lincoln was riding the circuit. We're not far at all from Springfield, where he lived and is buried.
Great photo

That's wonderful -- Mary Ball!
i also love that pix, hope Obama is also going to be a very wise President,
We do hope so!
Great steps Susan. You really do a wonderful job on the walking. When do you find time to quilt. Or don't you anymore.
Beautiful photo! Great people come from your area. (This includes you, although a Blufftonite, too.)
Haven't been doing much quilting, Sue, that's for sure.
Thank you, Kaye. We try to do the New Salem (reconstructed village where Lincoln once lived) every few years.
Here is my favorite Lincoln story:
Lincoln was digging stumps out of a ditch, a women passing by stopped and said, "you sir, are the ugliest man I have ever seen!"
Lincoln replied "Well ma'am there is not much I can do about that"
To that the woman replied "Well, you could have stayed home!"
I like his self-deprecating sense of humor.

Beautiful photo. Sometimes weeds are the most beautiful plants around.
Marty, years ago, I read through four of five volumes of Sandburg's history of Lincoln. I found the early volumes most interesting... Tremont was mentioned several times. His humor came through... though there's no question much of it was lost.
Chris, I quite agree!

Still giddy from the Obama win. Abraham Lincoln: "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.

16th president of US (1809 - 1865)
