Pam and I are staying the night at Fern Lake Campground and RV Park in Paducah, Kentucky. Nice site on the bank of a lake. We are camped under a huge oak tree.
We went to the old downtown where they have an impressive series of murals on the flood wall along the Illinois River. This river town needs more than 1 evening to discover all its riches.

Pam and I spent the day in Springfield, IL doing all things Lincoln and staying 2 nights at Double J RV Park. We started our day at the Hen House. I nice country diner stat serves great breakfast.
We visited the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum and Library. The musem is great. It takes you through his whole life, not just his presidency. Very informative and well executed. We spent over 2 hours there.
The Museum complex includes Springfield Union Station
We toured the Lincoln Family Home which is a National Park Service. They have bought all of the surrounding homes that existed when Lincoln lived there.
Finally, we visited Lincon’s Tomb where he and his family were laid to rest (except for his oldest son who is in Arlington).

Our Friends Andy and & Peggy Staver took us to Casa Grande Mountain Radio Tower trail for a night hike to take pictures of the full moon and sunset. It was a steep climb up 994 feet to the top, but the views were great.
Andy took some great photos and drone photos.
