HISTORY DAY

first  kof course we got up and had breakfast then it was time to get on the road to see the sights...


looking at maps we needed to kinda figure where we wanted to go and what we wanted to see before we gave this info to "toots"...the dealy plaza didn't open up till noon on mondays so we first started with the George w bush library...which we found to be most interesting and full of people due to martin luther holiday..there was  a lot to see and some of it was hard  toooo many people wanting to see the same thing..but we spent over 2 hrs there ...we could remember a lot of what happened during his term...


then on to lunch and the dealy plaza..now if you don't remember that is where president kennedy was shot in 1963....we started on the top floor and thought we paid 14$$ each for this a large opened room with few pictures  and windows to look out of..we had been given a cassette tour player thing and listening to it we thought this just doesn't match..so down a floor we went then we could use the tour guide thing...lots of stuff to see and look at and also to jog our memories as to what had happened and all that went on during that time...


so today was a memory jog for us and we were alive during this happenings...especially lar  cause he was stationed at fort Andrews when they took the casket carrying kennedy off the airplane and he saw it all happening...lots to read and remember..


now it was time to fight the dallas traffic and make it back to our campground..going and coming hasn't been too bad and maybe cause we arrived on a sunday and today was a holiday and lots of people had to day off and went shopping ahha..


glad we did both  things..tomorrow we hope to meet up with a habitat friend from mason..


life is still good --god bless..
