Montana Tours of 2005

Below, the Texas White House while President Johnson was in office, Lady Bird is sometimes sighted sitting on the porch, waving at the tourists.

Below is one of the cattle on the ranch, look closely at his left horn, yep, it says "LBJ".

Left, it is spring, the pansies are planted.  One of my favorites.  Note the border on this flower bed, it appears to be made of glass bottles, buried neck down.  See the enlarged photo.  These were taken at the Sauer-Beckman Farm, which is part of the Lyndon B. Johnson State Park and Historical Site.  The Sauer-Beckman Farm is a sample of Rural Life in the Hill County of Texas.  Interesting tidbit we learned, Augusta Sauer Lindig was the midwife at the birth of LBJ.

Close up of the bottles that make up this flower border.
