This is a delight. I could listen to Lady Bird talk for hours. Her interest in nature came through clearly, in her talk about the various grasses, working with a tree surgeon, the zinnias and morning glories, and planting bluebonnets. Lady Bird looks a lot like her daddy. Her concern with Lynda's plumpness and Lucy's slimness was interesting. People probably wouldn't say that today. Hereford cattle barely exist anymore. How different from today's herds. It's cool that the kids went to Johnson City Elementary instead of some private school in Austin or somewhere.
Interesting that the children were called by both names, "Lynda Bird" and "Lucy Baines." That is the old Southern way. Today they would probably just be called Lynda and Lucy.
I want to read the new book, "Lady Bird Johnson: Hiding in Plain Sight." It is supposed to reveal what a central role Lady Bird played in her and LBJ's partnership and what brilliant political instincts she had.
I LOVE how she describe the kids as "plump" in all the videos, IF they are plump at the time! I LOVE LADYBIRD!!!!

Look how small livestock used to be. Incredible
30 years ago we as a family four needed two chickens to feed us, not one that is full of hormones.
CatPerez - She was my teacher in 5th grade S.A. TX. 1970-71. She was a great teacher.
Secret lovely family :-)
I wish ALL the videos had sound. Some of them do not. Sad for me.
Absolutely beautiful accent. It is music to the ears. Compare this to today's Kardashian type accent.
Love her accent. Did she call her daughter plump? ❤️❤️
Bet Lynda wished her mother hadn't mentioned her "plumpness."
sounds like all my relatives
❤️💕😊🇺🇸💯
Ava Johnson Cox...great teacher 10:07
wasn't it, Lady Birds money, that bought this ranch and really paid for their nice lifestyle?
yes she inherited a fortune and with the help of LBJ and his connections bought a TV station and made millions, around 90 million!
She came for a well to do family. It was LBJ who didn’t.
This ranch had been in LBJ's family for years before "they" bought it from an LBJ family member.
They were basically hillbillies…..but very rich hillbillies….
How very condescending of you.
