Another interesting place is Harpers Ferry,WVA a stone's throw from Charlestown race track, my old home away from home...lol..
Harpers Ferry is best known for John Brown's raid on the Armory in 1859 and its role in the American Civil War..We toured the Armory and other areas, i have some pics buried somewhere around the house...wife calls me a hoarder..lol..

My wife is originally from KY, once visiting her folks we made a trip over to Lincoln's birthplace...I only remember going thru his log cabin...

been to harper's ferry, it is interesting. we went to springfield a few years ago. went to lincoln's tomb, and they had just opened the new abe lincoln museum, which is fantastic.
