Drove the Alaska Hwy in 2000, cross-country from Chas SC...amazing trip.
That sounds awesome.

Lincoln's Tomb
Lincoln's House
Bryant Cottage~(Where Lincoln and Douglas met to discuss and plan their debates)
The Gateway Arch
The St. Louis Zoo

The original hometown  of the Chicago Bears, when they were known as the Staley Bears.
Who was buried in Grant's tomb ?
Did Grant take Richmond ?
Where did he put it, and don't say in his tomb.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

You say that like it's a bad thing. :p

Not really.  I've had lunch at the El Tovar before.  Their barkeep knows how to properly draw a pint of Guinness. (Among other things.)

The Grand Canyon is not really on my list of top things to see.  That's the problem with television.  Eh, I've already seen it....

About 4 times. looked the same each time.  :-)
It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.
