Ray Beautifying America

One of the things Ray enjoyed was being one of 500 on Mrs. Lyndon Johnson's Committee to Beautify America. He went back to Washington and learned how Mrs. Johnson wanted to make the roads of America more beautiful. He was serenaded by both the Air Force and the Navy bands. He learned how she wanted them all to go back to their states and make the roadsides more attractive. While he was there he also attended Vice President Hubert Humphrey's birthday party. He had to hurry home because our oldest son, Steve, was graduating from high school.
