We had toured the museum in the past, and getting to the Lincoln Highway was our goal, so we enjoyed the quiet of the small town streets and then continued on our way.

I love the stone church very much! I wonder how cold a stone building can be? ;)

That limestone church is interesting @melinda010100. When we use limestone here it is most often smooth. I as surprised to see that more rustic look. 😊
