    MacBeth's history thread made me think of something....

    Have any of you history buffs visited any of the Presidential libraries around the country.

    I've been to a few, and I think they are just fascinating. I enjoy viewing the Presidential notes & papers relating to historical events that took place during that President's term. I also enjoy seeing some of the stuff they accumulated during their terms.

    The ones I have visited are...

    LBJ Library - Austin (of course....HOOK EM)
    Harry Truman Library - Independence MO
    Ronald Reagan Library - Simi Valley CA
    Richard Nixon Library - San Clemente CA
    FDR Library - Hyde Park NY (more like a museum than a library)

    Haven't been up to College Station yet to see the Bush I library, but I probably will in the near future...I just won't wear any burnt orange!

    Have any of you visited any of the Presidential libraries and do you enjoy the experience as I do?

    So, I guess you can't check out John Grisham's latest book at one of these libraries?
