Sam Rayburn’s house was originally a stacked 4×4: four rooms on the ground level and four rooms above, enlarged as finances permitted. Although Speaker of the House over twice as long as anyone else, it isn’t ornate even now; the last Speaker not to leave as a millionaire (or worse). It is amusing to listen to visitors; the most common comment is “My grandmother had one of those.” Truly a man of the people.

That actually happens a lot around here, only the original structure is a single-wide trailer.

What happens in the original structure (hopefully) stays in the original structure.

It’s strange that we decorate, with a half-moon, a “building” that sees so many full moons…
