Galesburg Galore & Knox College

With our uber knowledgeable tour guide Rex, we cruised around the town or Galesburg to take in some sites:

We started off in the Museum.

The living room of Carl Sandburg's first house.

To the left is a building that formerly housed one of Carl Sandburg's former workplaces- a firehouse. Even as a young man, Sandburg was dedicated to self education, so his fellow firefighters gave him a place to read and write.

"Maybe Sandburg climbed that tree."

 

 

Below is the second home that Carl Sandburg lived in with his family.

  

PART 2:

Rain, Rain, go away.

Final sights!

To be dedicated on April 30

Farewell, Galesburg!
