Ms Lillian, Plains, Georgia

November 1976

After Jimmy Carter was elected president, in November 1976, we drove to Plains, Georgia, to check out the President-to-be's stomping ground.   We saw his mother, Ms Lillian herself walking across the street.  With her long legs she was walking fast.  Some people had a hard time keeping up with her.  In the Train Station she had a chair and desk whee she was signing autographs.   She was very nice and graceful until a woman reached out to hug her and she recoiled like a caged animal.  She said something of the effect, "Do not touch me!"
After all, she was a nurse.
