Harry Truman National Historic Site

We did not have time to make it to The Jefferson Expansion National Memorial, so after we finished at the Truman site we drove on and parked in Columbia, MO. The Truman site was pretty neat but like the Carter site is kind of a bore, the intent is to give you a inside perspective of the community that the former president gree up and lived in, but like all areas time has changed this community. It was interedting to read some of his diary comments about his time in the Whitehouse and his nickname for it being "the white prison". It was also nice that after the presidency he returned to his prior civilian life.
