'We Need to Heal'

I'm not optimistic yet! I was in Mexico all last week. Rosalynn and I devote one week a year to building houses [there].

You have an enviable amount of energy not only for your age, but for a person of any age.

I was kind of tired when I got back. It was a very challenging thing. Veracruz is on the coast and is very hot and humid, and we had some problems with persons who got overly heated. Two as a matter of fact fell off a roof and got pretty severely hurt, but they're both going to survive ... I don't get on the roofs--sometimes it can be the hottest place, and it's easy to get dizzy and just lose control and end up on the ground.

Well if that's the only concession you've made to age, you're doing pretty good.

It's the only one I've made so far that I will admit.
