THOMAS EDISON




Welcome to Edison's Homepage
"He led no armies into battle, he conquered no countries, and he enslaved no peoples... Nonetheless, he exerted a degree of power the magnitude of which no warrior ever dreamed. His name still commands a respect as sweeping in scope and as world-wide as that of any other mortal - a devotion rooted deep in human gratitude and untainted by the bias that is often associated with race, color, politics, and religion."



"Be courageous! Whatever setbacks America has encountered, it has always emerged as a stronger and more prosperous nation...."
"Be brave as your fathers before you. Have faith and go forward" Thomas Alva Edison"

Find Burlington, In
If you are headed North on 29 take a right on to hwy 22 or a left if you are headed south on 29. Turn into Burlington Community park. I think it's the 1st rt. Park in first parking lot.
Head onto paved path between tennis ct and brown building. At the T , walk straight across grass and gravel drive, look for path into woods by sign saying " Park Property" Continue on path to your left. until you come once again to a T. Standiding at the tree on your rt to the rt of the path walk the left path 32 paces. Looking immediately to your rt you should see a fallen tree with a rather tall stump left - maybe struck by lightening or something. check into the fallen part where Thomas Edison resides.
