The George Bush Presidential Library and Museum |
Hurricane IKE hit Houston and Galveston.
We went out on the morning of Sept. 12,
2008. We are staying in College Station.
The afternoon, we visit George Bush
Presidential Library and Museum.
The holdings of this Library and Museum
include 43,000,000 pages of official and
personal papers, over 2,000,000
audiovisual images, and 90,000 original
artifacts.These are primary sources that
document George Bush's long public
career from Texas Congressman to
President of The United States.
Museum patrons experience the unique
influences and challenges that formed
George Bush's life and presidency. From
Maine to Texas to Washington, the story
of George Bush is a fascinating one of
adventure, courage, and dedication.
Some of the larger museum features
includes a World War II Avenger Torpedo
Bomber, a 1947 Studebaker, a slab of the
Berlin Wall, and precise replicas of
President Bush' Camp David and Oval
Offices. The presidential exhibits
document George Bush's exceptional
leadership during times of crisis - the
reunification of Germany, the collapse
of the Soviet Union, and the Gulf War.
The importance of family, friends, and
politics are also part of the museum's
colorful story.
I just took photos outside the museum.
