Lyndon B. Johnson NHP (April 23, 2000)



We lived in Dallas back in 2000, so on our way home, we decided to stop off in Johnson City for the Lyndon B. Johnson NHP. I decided taking shots of the signs for each park might help when I put them into albums, so here's our first park sign (don't remember if the museum under the Arch even HAD one!).
This picture is one of the first where we decided we might have a little fun with history. Somewhere on the land where the Johnson ranch and boyhood home was, we saw this outhouse outside and...well...

It is important to note that no historical outhouses were ACTUALLY harmed or defiled in the making of this picture. This is a simulated dump...had this been an actual dump, you would have been highly offended and we'dve been arrested! ;-)

Seriously, this seemed like a hilarious idea at the time...!

From this point on, it became a point of (dis)honor to take at least one stupid pic at every park site we went to!

On our NEXT trip...

...our trip to Hot Springs and the "hole in the ground"...
