The skinny: no in person game, but my wife treated me to a walking “ghost of Lincoln” tour, which was about 2.5 miles (to and from the hotel…plus close a mile getting our dinner), so it was a lot of standing and walking.
And the back/glute held up! Yeah, I know..no big deal normally, but in late spring, I could have NOT done this, at least without a lot of pain.
I did feel tightness and stiffness at times, but not much real pain, and it was not debilitating or even limp producing.
The tour: here are the sights. I learned a few things, including the race riot of 1908. We have so much ugly history swept under the rug.
I took some photos, including the Lincoln Home, Illinois State Capitol, and yes, a raccoon.
