Springfield Trip Part II

 

We were pleased to have an honored guest join us on our bus trip to Springfield --the wife of our US Senate candidate (challenging Dick Durbin)--Nancy Sauerberg (Mrs. Steve) of Willowbrook. She told us we were helping her fulfill a longtime dream of visiting the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, and here she is with Abe himself! (The museum displays wonderful lifelike figures of the Lincoln family and other key characters of the day, e.g. John Wilkes Booth, Frederick Douglas, in various places, especially in the lobby, arranged in front of a replica of the White House portico. So much to inspire us, and it's in our state!)
