Abraham Lincoln wrote the Gettysburg Address while traveling from Washington on the back of an envelope.

Congratulations Maureen!

Be sure and bring your camera so you can take pictures of the very envelope that Abraham Lincoln used as his transportation to Washington batEyes

Correct, Rob. Applause

It's one of my favourite sayings and very apt, especially on this site.

You're right....this site has some of the sweetest, kindest people in the world gathered together. I'm just glad they don't mind having me around them. Laughing

And

yay, Rob!
