Great friendly town. We all used the bathroom and it was very cool. We stayed for about an hour. My kids played in the water fountain, bring an extra set of clothes. They had a chess and checkers game. There was a nice memorial for servicemen and a place you can dispose of your torn US flags. We stopped and ate a the coffee shop off the square, yummy and friendly.
We loved this stop. We had our dog with us and he met a new friend there, a Jack Russell named Hoggie. The little dog lived there and led us on a tour, such a sweet dog and a beautiful park.
We have some cool pictures from this place.
The house was closed, but we were able to see it from the fence. Very neat. I wish they would open it again.
This was a nice stop. There was a nice gift shop with an archery range in the back.
We loved this little town. We stopped at a place called Frisco grill and the owners were very accommodating. We were traveling with our dog and they said we were welcome to come sit on the outdoor patio with him. The food was great and the company was wonderful. They even offered to bring out a piece of meat for the dog, but he gets car sick so we had to pass.
This was a lot smaller than we thought. Very cool piece of history.
You can actually go inside the tomb. We had to take turns going in since we had our dog and he was not allowed inside the tomb.
We read a book on Abe Lincoln with the kids so they knew who is was. We made this stop and the kids really enjoyed the "town". They were able to answer a few questions since we just finished the book on Abe. We were traveling with our dog and everyone was so friendly. Although he was not allowed in the buildings he was welcome to walk around outside. One volunteered went inside and brought out some fresh water for him.
There were so many cool things to look at. Not only all the things on the outside, but there was an antiques mall inside an old school. There was a little ice cream stand outside so we all enjoyed a nice treat.
