Fact of the Day: (from reference.com)
Lincoln Logs were invented by John Lloyd Wright, the son of famous American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The inspiration for Lincoln Logs came in 1916 when 24-year-old John took a trip to Tokyo, Japan, where Frank Lloyd Wright was building the Imperial Hotel. John watched workers build the earthquake-proof structure using the revolutionary technique of interlocking beams. When John returned to America, he created Lincoln Logs, which were named for President Abraham Lincoln and originally made of redwood.
