Kansas City BBQ

Headed off to the Truman Presidential Library in Independence, Missouri - about 15 minutes from the airport. Taxi ride to swing by the Truman House - so quaint and well preserved. Now, over to the other side of the freeway to the Presidential Library. Truman kept journals and his daily schedules with his notes detailing his thoughts about his meetings. Typically he would be meeting someone every 15 minutes.

He wrote wonderful love letters to his wife, Bess.

Several thoughts pass through my head as we finish the tour of the library. What a wonderful American and one that tried to do his best. By reading his notes, they are very insightful on how he felt about being overwhelmed when Roosevelt died and he was sworn into office, to his decision and the options he weighed to end the war and get Japan to surrender. Later, having to deal with domestic issues of inflation and unemployment of all those military forces being brought home.

Makes me proud to be an American!
