First Lady Laura Bush sure was a busy lady today. This morning, she was down in Memphis at Graceland with her husband and the Prime Minister of Japan. Then this afternoon she was just across the bridge in southern Indiana at a campaign fundrasier at Huber's. She sure gets around.
For those who aren't familiar with Huber's, it's about a half hour from Louisville, and it has orchards, a farm, a restaurant, and u-pick-it fruits and vegatables. Personally, I would have rather stayed at Graceland. But that's just me. It's an ok place to visit, but I'm not real crazy about going there. We go there once a year - usually the beginning of June - when the strawberries are in. And for the record, we don't u-pick-it any more like we did back in the day. The older we get, the more we're willing to pay for convenience. We buy already picked. The restaurant is good - especially their fried chicken. And they give you huge portions of the meat and then serve the rest family-style in big bowls. They also have an award-winning winery, and a cheese shop. But it's just not one of my favorite places to visit.
The local news channels had live coverage of The First Lady's speech at the fundraiser, and the reporter said that she didn't even eat dinner at the fundraiser dinner. I can't believe that The First Lady didn't eat any of Huber's awesome chicken and dumplins. They said she was there about an hour and then left. Maybe she was going back to Graceland.
