The blue ceiling was painted that way to keep bugs off the ceiling.It's confuse the insects that they think it's the sky.
The blue porch ceilings are to ward off wasp, birds, nesting. Sky blue!
Rest In Peace Mamie Eisenhower November 14, 1896-November 1, 1979
President Eisenhower answered a personal letter of a friend of mine who wrote to him as a class assignment in the 1960’s she had done for her English class. The letterhead was from the Whitehouse with the presidential seal. He thanked her for her thoughtfulness towards his wellbeing and wished her much success in her endeavors with life. We were driving around in her mother’s classic silver mustang that day before we had lunch at her house. She was so proud of that letter. I hope she kept it in a safe place. We lost touch of each other but at least I have that childhood memory of President Eisenhower’s kindness toward my friend. ❤️ Thanks for the wonderful tour, Jordan. ❤️🙏🏻
Great vlog Jordan! He was a great President and man. So wish there were leaders like this now.
Very cool video. My uncle was a park ranger at that home for over 30 years and gave those tours back in the day. I want to visit it one day. This was a special treat. Thank you.👍❤️
If the world would return to the simple rules of this family and follow Gods examples there would be a lot more peace in the world..Thanks Jordan...Blessings.
I hope to visit this one day. To see where he grew up. Eisenhower is my 4th great uncle.
I was not surprised at all to see the house he grew up in was almost identical to my grandparents house (the house my dad grew up in). Even some of the furniture, wall paper, and curtains looked the same! As I was watching, I could almost smell the air in those rooms. (Of course I was remembering grandma's house!).
This country and all of the allied countries were blessed that we had a Dwight Eisenhower to fall back on when we needed him the most. We can only hope that this is never forgotten. Dwight Eisenhower was a truly modest and humble man who (when asked) said that he never wanted any memorials dedicated to him - but only to the men and women he was privileged to have led during the war. Of course the politicians couldn't allow that to happen and the new Dwight David Eisenhower memorial is scheduled for opening in the spring of 2020. It will be located just off the mall, and across from the Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC. Maybe it will service the good by never letting the people forget him.
He WAS a great president, and it's fitting that he was buried with such a beautiful memorial chapel and resting place. Thanks for this vlog, Jordan.
Thanks for showing this beautiful place. We Kansans are very proud of IKE. He was President when I was born in south central Kansas. I've been to Abilene and all of the Eisenhower buildings since I was a kid in the 60s. When my Girl Scout troop toured the home in 65 or so, you could go upstairs at the home. It was just as lovely as downstairs. Nothing was roped off downstairs, either. The museum, next to the house, is one of my favorite buildings. You will be amazed at the collection of military memorabilia and Presidential memorabilia from his time in office. And, we just renamed the airport in Wichita that you flew in to after Ike. You've had quite the journey in Kansas. I am beating the Kansas summer heat by visiting my brother in Colorado Springs. Stay cool! I enjoy your channel very much.
WELCOME JORDAN!!... ITS GREAT TO HAVE YOU IN MY HOME STATE!!!🤗🤗🤗. ..
It would have been WONDERFUL to have had you do a vlog on Vivian Vance!!
I dont think many people realize she is from Kansas. .
You teach me something everyday Mr.Jordan.The interstate system here in the USA was built after President Eisenhower saw the highway system in Germany.Notice how our great interstate highways have roads perfectly able to handle military equipment.I hope you have a wonderful sunday in the great state of Kansas.
Start the week off right tommorow lionhearts 🦁!
Presidential Libraries, homes and graves aren't political. I'm glad that you are open to visiting these sites and sharing it on your Vlogs.
Seriously people. If your kid is being disruptive at an inappropriate time TAKE THE KID OUTSIDE!!!
I've been to his birthplace in Denison, TX and his retirement home in Gettysburg, PA. Awesome video Jordan, thank you!
As the Supreme Commander, Eisenhower had more power than any other man in history and that holds true today. He was a special individual. Biography's on this man make for very interesting reading!
Very interesting JTL and historic. Abilene was the first cow town of the West, where the Chisholm Trail ended. Lots of beef shipped out of there by railroad, Cowboys in the thousands herded cattle to Abilene, cool stuff in what once was a wild & rough town
A little history of Abilene, Ks. It was the first "cow town" of Kansas. When the railroads pushed further south and west into Kansas the "cow towns" moved with them, two others of note were Wichita and Dodge City.
Thank you for making this wonderful video. I am a lifelong resident of Abilene, and very proud of our very own Ike. You did such a nice job of explaining what you had seen and experienced. The original, smaller Eisenhower home was just beyond the train tracks of where the live train was. It was quite an honor to watch this, Jordan. Thank you!
Sounds to me like President Eisenhower was brought up well, somebody probably wherever or whatever he did in life, would of done it with a good heart, sounds like a good man, absolubtly loved listening and learning Thankyou Jordan xxx
Hi Jordan, once again, what a lovely little house, I liked the family photo of them all on the porch. I think the smaller the house, the more homely it is, and this house looks so cosy. How great that all the furniture and items inside were original aswell. Like the old saying "Be It Ever So Humble, There's No Place Like Home!!", and how true is that. Great Vlog Jordan.
I have toured so many old homes like that. The blue roof on the front porch I was told was to ward off spiders and various bugs that build webs and birds nests because it resembles the sky. So my mother did that to the roof of her front porch and it actually works!!! Evil spirits ....uh no.
Great Vlog. Dwight had his warts as does every President. He was was the Supreme Allied Commander in Europe, and that makes him an American war hero. He loved his country, and we can honor him. We went to the site in the 70s, and his son was there researching him.
My daughter's first air craft carrier that she served on was the USS Dwight D, Eisenhower. I was lucky to go on the ship for a Tiger Cruise for an over nighter. There were other families as well. They still do that today. She served 20 years. I really enjoyed this vlog and going to add it to my favorite's. I'm also going to share it to my daughter.Thank you for this vlog,it brought back many memories. Ship Ahoy Jordan your amazing on your finds.
Great vlog, Jordan. It's amazing to see his boyhood home. Look at what he accomplished in his life. Looking forward to part 2. Take care,Jordan.
I used to visit when I used to travel around Kansas for business and they never charged additionally for tours of the house before.
💋I look forward to your vlogs everyday Jordan. I have followed your channel for years now and could never get tired. Thanks for putting your heart into this form of art. ~Continued Blessings and Support. ~Love and Light 💖Carli
The room you said they hardly ever used was known as the parlor in the old days. My grandmother had one as well. Only for when company called, holidays or other special occasions. Including if a family member died, they would be on display in the parlor for visitors to pay their final respects. You didn't have funeral homes in those days.
The place it's self is very well kept , Lovely vlog thank you Jordan .
I remember as a kid the family would go to Wilbur, Nebraska to visit family. We stopped there a few times. It’s really grown. I will have to go back someday. Thanks for bringing back some special memories. Looking forward to tomorrow. 😁
LOVE YOUR VIDEO ABOUT PRESIDENT EISENHOWER DID SEND TO A LOT OF PEOPLE HE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PRESIDENTS UNTIL NOW GREAT VIDEO.
My goodness havent been there for over 40 years, now I live near Mamie Dowd Eisenhower home.
Thank you for this. My father marched in Eisenhower's inaugural Parade. My dad was a Midshipman at the Navel Academy. This was awesome!
Was there 4 years ago, awesome President. You did a great video on inside it’s so small. Also he implied our highways in the U S.
He was a very great man as a General and President I can't even imagine what he was thinking during WWll sending men and women to war he had a lot on his shoulders and indeed he is a very great hero
He was right on the money with that warning about the military industrial complex.
Meant to say Jordan what a beutifull area and a very peaceful and quiet place xxx
Thank you! My dad was a Marine & served white house duty during DDE's administration. The first lady was attracted to my dad's southern accent. She often asked about his childhood & upbringing from the rolling hills of Mississippi. In fact, she shared a peanut butter/jelly sandwich & milk with my dad. Here's an interesting fact; DDE liked Case pocket knives. There's a model called, "Eisenhower"
He would give one to guest of the white house & or other occasions. He gave my dad one too! DDE purchase all of his Case pocket knives from his home town hardware store. No telling how many knives he bought to give away. The letters, D D E was inscribed on the main blade. This video hit home to me. Again, thanks man.
Great president. I think everyone loved him. So interesting to see the house. Thank you, Jordan. Much love to you and Jah ❤❤❤🦁
Jordan if you ever get to Gettysburg Pennsylvania you will have to check out the Eisenhower house it's where he lived at when he was president they do tours of it it's called the Eisenhower farm.
It is called Haint Blue-my neighbor in PA painted his this blue-it's actually a southern "thing"....
Wonderful vlog, Jordan! Looking forward to tomorrow's vlog! Dwight Eisenhower is the only President that I have personally seen! When I was in elementary school my name (and one other student's) was drawn and we were able to go to see President Eisenhower during a visit he made to Los Angeles. I remember him standing in a convertible and waving to the crowd as he drove by. Of course, I was too young to understand the significance of just WHO I was seeing----but as I got older, I understood and it is a great memory for me today! Thank you for reminding me of that with your wonderful video!
I remember as a kid watching his funeral on tv.
I so remember the "I Like Ike" presidential campaign buttons from my childhood! Looking forward to Part 2!
Once again Jordan you did a great job on the vlog here! I enjoyed hearing about Dwight D. Eisenhower. I attended in my hometown one of the many high schools that were named after him. My two sisters and I attended Dwight D. Eishenhower High School in Decatur, Illinois. The original high school that I attended was torn down and rebuilt because the person in charge of the Decatur Public Schools wanted it more modern for the younger generations. The old high school did not have the CCTV cameras and security measures for the youth of today and that is why the old high school was torn down and rebuilt. The other high school was named after Douglas MaCarthur who also fought in World War II. It was also torn down and rebuilt. I did not like the idea of rebuilding those two high schools because Decatur is no longer a booming town like it once was. I used to be a Test Administrator for MEPS and did that for 5 years and I would do some of the high schools around St. Louis and Ferguson, Mo.. Those were pretty large high schools and the super intendant wanted to modernize the high school. By doing that the schools mascot that was a part of the entrance of the high school was removed and me as a alumni was not too pleased about that.
Another tourable historical Eisenhower home site is his post Presidential residence in Gettysburg, PA, near the grounds of the famous Civil War battle.
Very historical and informative vlog. Nice work👍🏻😎
Awesome vlog Dwight D. Eisenhower, what a great leader and role model. Have a good day Jordan.
That was totally awesome!! I wasn't born during his terms in office, but I heard nothing but good thing about him from my parents & grandparents. This museum is now on my bucket list! Thanks, Jordan!
Very well kept memorial grounds
Very interesting vlog. Lots of information on Dwight. Sorry you were rushed through Dwight's house.The fountain looks lovely and cooling. The chapel is lovely. Can't wait to see part 2. Safe Travels and Take Care.
Blue ceiling on porch is for bug control also..... people swear that blue paint repels insects, leaving a porch bug-free and pleasant during those long summer evenings and afternoons. ... Lye is a known insect repellent, which would explain why insects would avoid nesting on a painted porch ceiling or ledge.
It be great if you could set your alarm to when Jordan posts because usually he posts about the time I wake up
Great video Jordan ❤️
What a wonderful place/home/ resting place for a great man and his family. I really enjoyed this one. Thank you Jordan
Nice beginning! Sorry you got rushed thru the house tour, always frustrating when you want to absorb the atmosphere and don't get the time. You did a fine job sharing what you learned. Hope part 2 is at a personal pace, looking forward to the rest!
What a great spot to stop and vlog! The way everything was described, you could imagine the family living in that wonderful home. It must have been a busy one with all those boys! I love what they did with the grounds to honour him.
Although I live in Kansas and go past Abilene on the way to KC , I have never been to his home. My husband grew up in Salina , for field trips they did all things Abilene. I love the I like Ike signs all over . We stop there to eat at Joe Snuffy's (great place for burgers and traditional set down) It's a neat little town. So cool you made the trip to Kansas
The home where he was born is in my town in Denison,tx , Tours are also given.
I've been there years ago loved it I'm a presidential historic fan big to every library except bush Lyndon Carter
Thank you so much for the vlog. I've been there twice. Last time in 72. That's when I fell in love with Kansas. Plan to return next summer. Great man. Great memories. Thank you so much.
We sure could benefit from having President Eisenhower around today. Great vlog. 💕
very nice his birthplace is also a museum ive been to that one
This was a great vlog I share the same was Birthday with Dwight D Eisenhower thank you for sharing it
Nice vid Jordan thanks for sharing.☺🌟👍
I've been there once as a child and again as an adult, I still so enjoyed today's vlog and look forward to tomorrow's vlog.
Another great vlog my good man!
You are right Jordan, Eisenhower was a great General and great President thank you for reminding everyone.
I went through there as a kid -- that was many moons ago! lol! Jordan have you ever had a chance to go to Wright Patterson AF Museum in Dayton? They have Eisenhower's presidential plane there and many other aircraft/ space craft on display. It has exhibits from the Wright Bros. to present day.
Very respectful place it is a nice place to visit I was there in 1985 when I was a soldier on Fort Riley Kansas and it really shows what a true American should be like it's very humbling to be there
Love love LOVE this video! ❤
So glad you posted this....so many younger generations don't know
Anything about the great man and his family....
Very Beautiful vlog! Good job as always!!
Thank you for sharing Jordan ❤️
Love the informative video. I do believe he was a kind man. Raised right. Everything is so well preserved and your 2nd video wwas wonderful. I would like to see all the Presidential Libraries. Ty Jordan 🦁🌍🎥✈🇺🇸
You should visit the FDR Library in Hyde Park, NY.
I was stationed there at the start of the most recent Iraq War and my wife and daughter came up and we visited that whole grounds. The statue you saw is a smaller version of the original that was there in 2001. They moved it to Washington DC. Great Vlog as always Jordan.
Thankyou Handsome
Very good his was the first campaign for president that I can really remember
Great one. Thanks.
Fascinating! Loved it!
Wow I just visited dennison Texas and his birthplace home. Very similar looking town
This is just a few hours away from me. I have always wanted to check it out. Now you have really peeked my interest. I also invite you to come to my city in Independence MO to see Harry Truman's home and Presidential Library. But, you will have to wait until after next year as the library is being renovated over the next year.
Another EXCELLENT vlog, Jordan!! I really love history and really enjoyed this vlog!! I've been to the Eisenhower Farm & House in Gettysburg, PA. Thank you for another great vlog, Jordan!! 😊✌🇺🇸
I got to visit there right after I graduated from high school really an honor to get to do that great job on the Vlog.
That's funny the house in dennison was just accross the wrong side of the tracks also
Nice vlog Jordan! The house looks amazing!
I was watching to see if you'd mention the oval office, military industrial complex warning. Good on you, Jordan. Hello, from Oxford!
Great job as usual Jordan! Thank you!
This was really nice Jordan! Thanks for taking us along on your adventures! I can't really travel anymore. But because of vlogs like these, I get to see some fun places! 🙃 😃 😊
Thanks for the video.It is a very beautiful place.
How interesting! Thanks for sharing with us
In his book "Stories I Tell Friends" Eisenhower said he'd measured the square footage of his home and wondered how his mom had kept house with eight people in a house that size, I've visited three times and love Abilene. Although Ike was not born there he said the proudest thing he could say was that he was from Abilene. My sister was born in 1959, if she had been a boy my folks were going to name her Dwight.
Very interesting vlog , Thank You Jordan . You go many places and I’m seeing through your eyes all this amazing history!! I just can not thank you enough for taking your time and always sharing with us . I’m disabled and doubt I’ll ever get to see everything that your seeing . Loves to the Jahster 😘💋💋💋💋🌹🥰
You should do a vlog about the Wizard of oz museum in wamego kansas. And the aircraft museum in Wichita kansas.
Great vlog. He was the first president of my life. He also started the cross country highways.
Thank you!
Great vlog Thank you for taking the time to make it brings back good memories Thank You very much!
Maybe the wrong side of the track but to me a beautiful home!! Loving all of your travels!! I love the history of our nation!! Thank you Jordan for taking us on your journeys!!
