LBJ

For those of you old enough to remember the turbulent 60's, you will certainly remember Lyndon Baines Johnson, our 36th President. His Southern White House is located between Fredericksburg and Johnson City, here in Hill Country. We took a drive up there a few days back, and took the tour. Saw most of the grounds, the house where he was born, the family cemetery, and the stables. Interestingly, Lady Bird, who is still living, stays there most weekends, so the house itself is not open to tours. They slowed the bus down, told us to take pictures if we wanted, but we couldn't get out of the bus - the home is under the protection of the Secret Service.
