📚 Bookstore Field Trip: Springfield, Illinois ❤️🖤💚
📍Springfield, IL AbrahamLincolnMuseum ✨free admission today in honor of the holiday✨

Limback family tradition is collecting state capitols.
Today we landed in Springfield, IL on Juneteenth.
📜The Emancipation Proclamation and the 13th Amendment were on display
It was a weighty visit full of reminders of the power of words and stories. We were immersed in history through impressive displays and collections.
Seward friends: seeing William Seward’s name woven throughout the history of Lincoln, the Civil War and Emancipation was a wonderful connection to a bigger history.
