Eisenhower Museum

We went to former President Eisenhower's museum/boyhood home/library/grave today.  Spent about 3 1/2 hours there, it was very interesting.  He went to West Point and graduated an officer, from there.he became a General of the Army and shortly during WW2 became the Commanding General of all the military.  He was know for his good planning and decisiveness.  When WW2 was over he helped settle the Korean Conflict.  His war efforts were admired by people in many countries especially the USA.

The Democrats and the Republicans both tried to get him to run on their ticket for President, he choose the Republican Party with Richard Nixon as his Vice President.   He was elected to a second term, after that term he had heart problems and died. in 1969.  He had married Mamie from Boone, Iowa shortly before going to war.  They had two boys, one of which died as a toddler.  He also had four grandchildren, He named Camp David after a grandson.  David married Julia Nixon.

After that big day, we came home and cleaned up the house, gets extra dirty when traveling for some reason.  We may have our Camping World problems solved after talking to the corporate office.  Let's hope.  It is a nice but windy day.

Grilled some steak for dinner, will get up early tomorrow to hopefully beat bad weather.
