Happy Birthday Mr. Lincoln


Each year the city of Danville, IL has a special way to wish their hometown hero a Happy Birthday. Abraham Lincoln practiced law in that area for many years and to celebrate they host an annual Birthday Card contest. This year found more then 400 entrants, on Sunday the Vermilion County Museum hosted a party for all the participants. The winners were announced and birthday cake was served. This is an annual happening to Danville and we found it to be the perfect place to celebrate Abe.

Here you can see a collection of the top finishers, I was blown away by the creativity and construction.
