To the editor: We stopped in Lincoln, Ill., recently on our way
back from southern Illinois to West Burlington, Iowa. We just want
to say that you should be very proud of your town.
We stayed overnight, and the next morning we drove around and
took pictures of your "Lincoln" sites, your architecture, downtown,
etc. We stopped at the farmers market, we ate at the Arcade
restaurant and shopped at the Mustard Moon.
Everyone was so friendly -- from the manager of the motel, the
people at the farmers market, the man in the restaurant who got up
and gave us his booth to sit in while he went to the counter to sit,
the waitresses, and the proprietors of the Mustard Moon. We have
traveled quite a bit, and we have found out that you just don't get
treated like that everywhere you go.
[to top of second column in this letter] |
 We just felt we had to write and tell you what a good impression
your town made on us, and if we are that way again, we will
certainly stop and visit.
Mervin and Barbara Smith
West Burlington, Iowa
