On Tuesday we took a drive along Ocean Ave and stopped to take a few photos of Walkers Point, made famous by George H. W. Bush when he was president and it was used as the Summer White House. President 41 spent much of his childhood on Walkers Point and the property belonged to his matinal grandfather, George H. Walker. When his Grandfather died the property was purchased from the estate by George H. Walker, Jr, Bush's Uncle. When his Uncle died in 1977 George H. W. Bush purchased the property and it has remained in the Bush family ever since. Several of the Bush children have also built homes on the point and the family continues to vacation there.
