Springfield, Illinois ---…read more There are only about 338 drive-in movie theaters left in the USA (from about the 4300 peak), so I attend & SUPPORT all of them. The "Route 66 Twin Drive-In Theater also has Route 66 in its favor. It's unique "no speaker poles" parking allows the 1st cars arriving to set the pace. Tall vehicles in the back (where "Flo" & I park), gets to see the crowd, as well as the movie. The "experience" is why I attend drive-in's. Watching people with their creative pick-up truck seating, people walking around with their buddies, kids in their PJ's & families being families. The $7.50 ticket price is fair & the concession prices are fair too (not LOW, but fair). SUPPORT Drive-In's! Attend & buy their concessions to keep them in business for yourself & for the future! #RunAwayBill #DUSA2018 #DriveInMovieTheaterRAB #Route66 #Route66RunAwayBill #HistoricRoute66 #USroute66 #MotherRoad #Ruta66 #WillRogersHighway #MainStreetOfAmerica #RAB66_2018 05.19.18 "Run-A-Way Bill" was here!

A must see in Springfield, Ill The Abraham Lincoln…read morePresidential Library and Museum in Springfield, Illinois, is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in American history, the United States President or Abraham Lincoln. It is located in downtown Springfield, and consists of two main structures: the Museum and the Library. We parked in the multi-story parking garage just to the north and west of the museum. The museum and the library was a short, easy walk away. I think the museum is the star of the visit since it contains far more to see and experience. From the moment we entered, we were warmly greeted by a friendly volunteer at the front desk. The entire facility serves as a wonderful tribute to one of America's greatest presidents, many would argue the greatest. The exhibits are thoughtfully designed and take visitors through the various eras of Lincoln's life, from his early years through his presidency and legacy. I think one of the highlights is the excellent short film presentation in the Archives area. It is located to the right as you enter. It's a well-produced show that beautifully explains the importance of preserving historical documents and artifacts. And that is just one of the exhibits. There is simply so much to explore here that you could easily spend an entire day (or multiple days) just trying to see and absorb everything. Overall, the Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum was wonderful and well worth the visit. Whether you're a history buff or just passing through Springfield, this is a great educational experience that brings Lincoln's story to life in a meaningful way. I definitely recommend this to anyone in the area.

Well worth the time (give yourself at least 90 minutes) and the price of admission. The displays…read moreare well done and informative. The docents/volunteers are excellent, everyone that we talked to was warm, informed and clearly enjoyed their time with us patrons. The day we were there two musicians were playing period music. They were very good, and while it did get a little personally annoying, it did really put you in time and place for the subjects. Both of the relatively short theater presentations are worthwhile, so plan accordingly so you can watch both. There was one display depicting the slavery auction block. It is a gut punch to anyone with a human heart, regardless of your outer wrapping.

I would like to see more booths selling items like the old days, Buck and Bum, toy farm equipment etc. I also miss seeing the large farm equipment display. There doesn't seem to be as many entries in the arts and crafts, maybe people just aren't doing that anymore. I don't recall seeing an Illinois Wine tent. The Neon Experience was amazing with the newest addition of a corn dog. A display of products made in IL would be great. I stumbled in on the Chilli cook off, and sampled some great chilli, not sure if that was a daily thing. Having the Tram run through the grounds instead of around the outside would be helpful. The Ethnic Village was great, all the little buildings had something in them, the Gyros are always a favorite. I do miss the yearly Ethnic Fest over Labor Day weekend. I appreciate the free day for seniors and the $3 entry the 2 other days I was there. The music in the beer tents didn't seem to start until much later in the afternoon and the stage by the barns on the way to the grandstand didn't have any seating which would have been nice. Corrections did a wonderful job with all the landscaping. I miss the flower entries, maybe they could have an entry for flower shops to display their creations. Having a cooling center nearer the middle of the fair instead of the Illinois Building would be helpful to seniors and people with small children, it used to be in the Emerson Building. I don't believe that building is being used at all, it held the flower arrangements at one time and would be a great place for the Governors Wife's set up with the children's activities if its still air-conditioned. The State Police presence was great, the couple I spoke to were kind and helpful. The grounds were well kept. Cold water was available at all the government and political tents. Conservation world was super, the raptor show put on by World Bird Sanctuary was amazing.
