Day 12 (Wednesday, 9/21) - Summary

Great breakfast and great conversation start the day at the B&B in Petersburg, and then a drive to Vincennes. Here I see not only sites associated with the Lincoln travels to Ohio, but also regarding the early settlement and governing of the Northwest Territories and the story of William Rogers Clark's unbelievable assault on the British during the American Revolution.
