Lyndon B. Johnson National Park

This is the Texas White House where LBJ's family came for vacations while he was in the White House. Lady Bird lived here after his death until her death in 2007. Now it is being restored back to the way it was for tourists to see. We saw his office, the kitchen, dining room (where all the chairs have a different flower needlepoint on them) and the living room. By 2011, you will see their bedrooms and family room. A park ranger led us through the house...a CD was given to us to tour the ranch.

This was LBJ's aunt house and he purchased it from her.

This is LBJ's childhood house. His father was a senator in the Texas legislature; his mother was an educator and journalist. LBJ was a teacher early in his career and that is when he learned about the poverty of others.
