Lyndon Baines Johnson was a car-man. Tyler's favorite car on display at the ranch was the hydrovehicle (that blue thing back there). Apparently, LBJ was quite the kidder and enjoyed taking people for rides in it, then pretending that the car was out of control and they were headed for the water. He loved to see if people would save themselves or the President first!
Here's a shot of the front of the Texas White House. The Johnsons loved their ranch (and I can see why), so when he took office in the mid-1960's he created a workable office here in Texas. The technology was quite advanced for that time. Anyway, the house itself is slowly being restored to the 1960's era for the National Parks and Registry to open to the public.
This was etched into the cement on the sidewalk leading to the pool...
