Jimmy Carter 39th President of the USA
Just two more of the stores in the same block of the others... They are sure proud of their local hero who is often seen bicycle or jogging through town... He visits the businesses often.
Here is Ralph & Norm in front of local store and me in the infamous peanut disguise... Of course I had to go in and get some PEANUT BRITTLE... YUM
Constructed in 1921, Plains High School is where President Jimmy Carter and the First Lady Rosalynn Carter went to school. It was a opened until 1979 and now serves as the museum and visitor center of the Jimmy Carter National Historic Site.
The Carter Farm was owned by his parent Earl & Lillian Carter... Jimmy Carter lived in this home from 1928 til 1941 when he went away to collage.
Living Room & Washing machine on back porch
This bathroom had a very unique shower head don't you think and Sheila this shot is for you.... I had to open a gate that keeps you out of the room just to take a picture in it...
Jimmy's bedroom & his parents bedroom
Here are some of the outer farm buildings and I couldn't resist taking this old wagon
The barns around the property
And I know you saw this BIG fella but...
Gueeeezzzz his teeth were dirty...I just had to floss them
Until Later

Didn't think much of him as a president...but I do like peanuts!
I'm laughing hard at you for sneaking and getting the bathroom diva shot!!!!!
It was a wonderful tour. I loved going into his boyhood home. I think we covered everything that Plains had to offer.
Hugs,

thats cool! I had no idea they had all that in honor of him. I remember that time so well. the house looks so homey--a time I dont think we have anymore.
Cool pics, love your bathroom diva shot!
What a delightful tour. I LOVE the picture of Main St. with all the colorful storefronts. Thanks for taking us along!
Oh wow, I really liked this tour Donna. Even though I live in GA I've never been to Jimmy's hometown. I really love his boyhood home. Peanuts make me weak like most people go for chocolate so I really do need to go down their and have my pic taken in a peanut! LOL
