Sorry to say...I didn't have a cigar to give to Bill Clinton and then have our picture taken...so I decided to save my camera space for something else... !

Upstairs, in this museum, they had an exhibit of all the first ladies in their inaugural gowns. Being a seamstress, I was in awe of the detail of the work involved!

I wasn't even aware (I say this as an ashamed American) that not all first ladies weren't the wives of the presidents they represented! In the earlier years of our country, some of the first ladies were the sister's of said presidents. I'm guessing as the years progressed, that "we the people" preferred his/her leader to have a stable life in marriage.

Anyway...on with the picture show!
