"Picture Decatur" (Decatur IL)

"From the Cottonfield to the Battlefield" 300 Block of North Water Dedicated in 2009. But never finished. Or should I say..... sculpture finished but project never finished. Why?  Take a look: Never finished...... until this week: So glad to see recognition finally given to Mr. Jackson for this wonderful piece of historical art.
