Lady Bird travel plans, visiting Rebekah Baines Johnson, social plans
TRANSCRIPT
[undated 1939]
Thanks for the telephone call and two sweet letters.
Monday Morning
Darling -
Here are my plans: I shall leave here Wednesday morning at 7:20 and get to Houston Thursday morning at 7:30. I've written Mrs. Johnson and Uncle George I'm coming and that I'm going to spend the day with them but will go to the hotel at night - unless they happen to have an empty sofa. (I know they are
2
probably full with Mrs. Johnson and Josefa there but anyway I want to have a visit with them even tho' [sic] I don't get to spend the night.)
I shall do a little necessary shopping in Houston Wednesday Thursday, get a session at the beauty parlor Friday morning, and catch a bus or train to Brenham Friday afternoon. And there I
3
shall meet my love!
If you want to tell me anything, write or wire me at Uncle George's- its 1011 North (or west) Main Street.
I asked Mrs. Johnson to call Alice Brown and tell her I would be in Houston Thursday and Friday morning and that I'd love to see her.
Mary Love and I have been writing each other and the program in Brenham sounds
4
grand but absolutely every minute filled - barbecue, bridge party, dinner, cocktails at Reichardt's, and American Legion Dance!
I'm so anxious to see you and hear all the news, both good and bad, - and kiss away all the troubles, if there are any. I think living at Johnson City will be fun - we'll see that it is.
Goodbye, my love, until Friday - or whenever you get to Brenham. And best of luck on your speech. Most important of all, take care of yourself.
Always love - L.B.J.
