I'm reading through Eleanor Roosevelt's Correspondence with President Harry Truman.

1. I agree w/ you, and have read quite a bit about her (Eleanor R.). A remarkable woman. My elementary school

was located just across the square from Harry's house too, so all of us kids were let out to greet the celebrities that came to visit Harry. It was, as some would say, an experience of a lifetime. I forget how many presidents, dignitaries, etc. would come to pay their respects to Bess and Harry.

If you get a chance to visit Independence MO, to see their house, that would be an enjoyable trip. Also, the square in Independence too, is very nice. We spent a lot of time shopping in the square, and it was totally unexpected, we didn't know that there would be so much to see and do there.

I've lived in Independence MO for roughly 8 or so years, some of the best years of my young life.
