On Saturday, my mom and I visited the George H. W. Bush Presidential Library on the campus of Texas A & M University. It was my first visit to this library and to College Station at all.
One of the cool things about presidential libraries, at least for me, is that I learn so much while I'm there! I had no idea that President Bush isn't originally from Texas, or that he held numerous federal government jobs and posts before running for president himself. It was an excellent visit. I enjoyed getting to share this one with my mom. Here's a sampling of what we saw....

At the exhibit where I learned that at one time George H. W. Bush was the head of the CIA, we were able to scan our hand and watch this TV screen as it focused in on exactly where we were standing! I'm the one closest to the bottom of this picture.
If you're ever down in the College Station area, you should stop at this presidential library!
