solitude sunday

it's solitude sunday, our day to spend time with a book.

my time with mr lincoln is rapidly coming to a close.  the year 1865 was brief.  his second inauguration, the gettysburg address, the end of the civil war all by the end of april.  the next chapter was all about life in the white house with the president, his family and key members of his administration and cabinet.  the photographs that most impressed me with today's reading were the photos of the dedication at gettysburg; some of which i have never seen before and made the event fuller in scope and understanding for me.
