Gifts to President and Mrs. Bush

The Gifts were in a separate room.  They were grouped by the type of item.

George Herbert Walker Bush Presidential Library, College Station, Texas

I am in College Station, Texas today and spent the morning at George HW Bush's Presidental Library.  The library documented his service in World War II as well as his long history of public service.  The library is well laid out starting with both his and Barbara's family.  I started the tour with a 20 minute film that outlined the content of the museum.  There was also a special exhibit featuring George Washington's Acts of Congress book.  No photos were allowed in that exhibit.

George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum, Dallas Texas

I visited George W. Bush's Presidential Library and Museum today.  The museum part was interesting and very well done.  It is not a large exhibit.  9-11, Iraq and Katrina overshadowed his 8 years.  I did learn about some programs he started that were not well know.  I did all four of the choices in the Decision Center and found that I agreed with him on 2 of the four.  This is Presidential Library # 6 of the 13 for me.  I recommend visiting if you are in the Dallas area.

I had lunch in 43 (the restaurant).  Both the Service and the food were very good.
