Close to a year ago, Josh’s choir at West High School in Salt Lake City announced they would be singing in Carnegie Hall in New York City!

The decision to drive rather than fly was cemented with the opportunity to visit the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum in Springfield, IL along the way. Dirty Politicians are nothing new, but Martin Van Buren literally got dirty when citizens in Plainfield, IN toppled him from his carriage into the muddy road for which he had vetoed funding for road improvements!
