This young padawan (you can tell because human Jedis in training apparently shave their beards) is looking bored waiting for Star Wars Episode III in Springfield Missouri.

We love Cracker Barrel restaurants. Unfortunately, there aren't any on the West Coast where we live. So we make a point of stopping in a few while we're out traveling.

The Illinois Springfield campus has many beautiful places to relax, many quiet spaces to study and many exciting areas to connect with friends and check out the sights and sounds of UIS.

Built in 1897-1898, this Richardsonian Romanesque Revival-style building was designed by Francis T. Baron to serve as a Union Station for Springfield, Illinois. The station was a joint effort between the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O Railroad), Chicago, Peoria, and St. Louis Railroad (CP&StL), and Illinois Central Railroad, and later served the short-lived St. Louis, Peoria and North Western Railway. The station’s original 110 foot (34 meter) tall three-story tower was removed in 1946, ten years after the clock faces had been deactivated as a cost-saving measure during the Great Depression. It served as a passenger train station until 1971, when service was discontinued, in favor of Amtrak utilizing the through-running station along the Chicago and Alton Railroad lines, later known as the Gulf, Mobile and Ohio Railroad (GMO), just a few blocks to the west of the station. The building features a multi-colored brick exterior with dark red and light red bricks present alongside buff brick, stone trim, arched bays, a hipped roof, hipped dormers, a large canopy on the Madison Street facade with brick piers and large brackets, which was the former passenger platform alongside the railroad tracks, and a reconstructed tower with four turrets, a pyramidal hipped roof, and four clock faces. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. After passenger train service was discontinued, the building served as offices for the State of Illinois until 2004. Between 2004 and 2007, the building was restored to its original exterior appearance, with the reconstruction of the clock tower and restoration of historic exterior elements. Today, the building serves as the visitor center for the nearby Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library.

A picture I took at the recent Rick Springfield concert in Marin

When I saw this I thought it was an old department store, but I see what looks like a nigh depository on the side so it may have been a bank.

Springfield Armory Museum, Springfield Massachusetts.

The Springfield Armory was established in 1777, at the request of George Washington and Henry Knox, to build weapons for the United States military. Another armory was established in Harper's Ferry Virginia. Harper's Ferry Armory was destroyed in the Civil War and was never rebuilt. The Springfield Armory was the major source of American weapons until it was closed in 1968.
