 Daddy, he wanted to come home, and home was the ranch. And that's where he wanted to be. He wanted to be in Texas. So whenever he got a break from work, whether it was in the Senate or whether it was in the Vice Presidency or the Presidency, he wanted to go to the ranch. And Mother was wonderful and she would be there with him and comfort him. He always wanted to have her around. He was always better and much better-mood when she was around. But she had already seen that deer about a hundred times. And she knew every cow and every plant out in the ranch. She didn't need to see them every day again and again. And she'd go with Daddy to see the deer drive around and talk to Dale Malachek. She wouldn't talk. Mother would sit in the car with Daddy, but he liked to have her close. And that's wonderful, except from time to time it was a little oppressive. And one of the interesting things to me is she would kind of tell us that she just really didn't care about going that one more time to see the deer. But then after Daddy died and she was by herself, she would sometimes say, why don't we go look at the deer? And we would all laugh and think, oh, how funny. And wouldn't Daddy love to hear that? Because she made fuss about getting to do it one more time. But she loved variety. She liked a lot of interesting people. She, Daddy, wanted to see his political people over and over. And a lot of times it was the same people. And he had that agenda. He wanted to meet with them because he had projects that he wanted to do with them. And Mother loved the theater, loved kind of intellectual stimulation. And I remember one time Mother had wanted to go to this embassy event. And Daddy really just didn't care about going. He would take some other senators and they'd go to the horse races because that senator wanted to go. And Daddy would go to kind of schmooze with him or he'd go to the baseball game. But I never had the feeling that this was really the most important thing on his agenda. And so we'd gotten this invitation, Daddy and Mother, because he was an important person, had been invited to go to this embassy to an event. And Mother went ahead and Daddy never showed up. And Mother was really just a little peeved, a little angry at him. You know, I went and you never came. And she said, and other senators were there while Theodore Francis Green was there. And Daddy said, yes, and I was in the Senate trying to pass his bill. And Daddy just, that was, he was there all the time and really trying to manage what went on in the Senate. And they did get an awful lot through. And so I can appreciate it. But after Daddy died, Mother did have the opportunity to do some things. Now after Daddy left the presidency, he did take Mother to Mexico to Acapulco because he did love the sunshine and he would go down there and they'd have a good time. And he did take Mother a few times into other places. Mother would tell lots of stories about how he took her on a NATO trip. But she tells those stories because it was one of the few trips he took her on. It's like my few times that Daddy and Mother went to any of our high school events. It was the few times, we remember, because they weren't very many. And Mother would complain that other senators went on all these foreign trips and that Daddy never took Mother on any foreign trips. And he did take her on a few, but not very many, that's for sure. And so after he died, she felt free to go travel. And so she started going up to Martha's Vineyard a lot and she took trips to France and England and Italy and she'd take a house and take a lot of friends and had a wonderful time. And so while I'm very, very sad that Daddy died so young, it did give Mother the opportunity to do some of the things that she wanted to do in life before she got too old to do them. And I don't know that Daddy ever would have said, oh, let's take a house in Italy and go spend two weeks in Tuscany, just would not have been the top of his agenda. And so he did take a few trips, but not near as many as Mother would have liked. So it did liberate her. And then, of course, it gave her a lot more time to do some of the environmental things that she wanted to do. And she didn't take on the cause when she was First Lady. It was something she cared about. And when I was growing up, she would take us, at least if not to see all of the parks. She did take us to see the historical sites. And that was made a little easier for her by the fact that her mother-in-law, my day, Mrs. Sam Johnson, loved to go see historic sites. And her mother would take her to visit all of the courthouses in Virginia and all around when she was working on her genealogical work. And also Sam Rayburn liked to go. And so Daddy would go along to see Stratford Lee's home because Sam Rayburn would want to go. And so Daddy would kind of go along as the third wheel in that case. Sam Rayburn and Daddy would kind of begrudgingly go along because he wanted to go along with the speaker. So we have a few of those kinds of times that we did it. But Mother definitely had a lot more opportunities to do things of her agenda after Daddy died. And she, of course, expanded her involvement in the environment with Town Lake and with the Wildflower Center and has carried that through. But she's not perfect. I don't know anything about this. I mean, I've been around it and by now I've began to be able to differentiate between a primrose and an Indian paintbrush. But still, just as Daddy would say, it's her thing. It's not his thing. I would have to say that it's not my thing either. And Mother also sometimes was a little bristly. And I think there are probably times that she got her way with Daddy. And I don't want anybody to ever write that he was such a weight around her neck. Because I...
