The Texas White House is
part of the National Parks
A tree lined drive takes us
onto the Johnson Ranch.
Deer are resting
along the fence line.
Hereford cattle are raised
on this ranch.
Here's a section of
the landing strip.
It seems that there are
cows everywhere.
The airstrip was essential
during Johnson's presidency.
President Johnson spent about 25% of his time at the "Texas White House" during his administration.
The President ran the country
from his ranch & enjoyed
his family while working.
LBJ's all-terrain vehicle
included a wet bar.
A Park Ranger gave us
a tour of the house.
Photos aren't allowed
in the home.
Touring the house was a very intimate experience. The Johnsons' life here was very comfortable and complicated. President Johnson had a phone everywhere, including his bathroom. Lady Bird's bedroom is as she left it, with photos of beloved family and friends everywhere.
We were able to park near the
hangar that covers
