Friday morning we headed out to the Presidential Museum here in Odessa with my parents. The museum was inspired and created by locals after JFK's assassination. They also said that it's the only one in the whole nation that is devoted to the history of all the presidents and their wives. Coincidentally, George W. Bush lived here for a short time when he was just a few years old...he also lived in Midland for a few years too.
A replica of the rug in the oval office. I guess that each president has the right to completely redecorate, and sometimes even orders a new, slightly different rug--interesting.
Listening to George Washington give a little intro to the museum, and the little-old-lady who was a sweety, all the while trying fairly hard to sell us something in the gift shop.
Nick, my dad, and my mom checking out the displays on the earliest presidents. Lots of interesting facts that will be useful if Nick ever goes on Jeopardy!
