Jammin' at the Cabins

We took a little day trip to the Lincoln Log Cabins last Sunday.  Evangeline had been there before with Peggy so she was very excited to show me around and was a lovely little guide.  Kyle joined in a bluegrass jam and played for a few hours with several other musicians.  We had fun watching him play with the group.  He did awesome and rocked all of his solos.  I was pretty proud of him.  The cabins were great.  One cabin was an original and the other was a replica of the home of Thomas Lincoln  (Abe's father) and Sarah Bush Lincoln.  The original was lost when they disassembled it and took it to the State Fair in the early 1900's.  They call the Lincoln Log Cabins "living history" and had several people playing the parts of the people who once lived there going about their daily chores.  They never broke character.  We also stopped off at Thomas Lincoln's grave.  Kyle stated, "if it's historical the Hutsons are there".
