Some of my cousins from Houston, TX are here for two weeks and I've been acting as tour guide in the last few days.
First stop - The Richard Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda.

This is the house Nixon's father ordered and built (it was a kit) on their 9 acre ranch. It's 900 square feet.

| The beds had quilts! |
 |
| They were used all the time. Here is a basket block quilt with signatures in the master bedroom. |
 |
| This one was crocheted - a log cabin variation. |

I would have taken more photos inside the exhibits, however my battery was running low. More later.
