A Midland Kid

2018 West, 41-George Bush, 43-George W Bush, Presidential Sites, Road Trip, Texas

In 1951 an oil filter equipment salesman and his wife, George & Barbara Bush moved into this modest house at 1412 W Ohio Street in Midland, Texas and made it their home for four years. Here their eldest son Georgie played with his younger siblings, was a member of the Roy Rogers Club, joined Cub Scouts, and played Little League sparking his lifelong love of baseball. In 2001 a nonprofit organization purchased the house and with cooperation from the Bush family has restored it to reflect the Bush Family home of the early 1950’s. We arrived just in time to join the last guided tour of the day and learn more about this great family!

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
