[Eva Elisabeth]

Great prize, Roger, thank you - I will love to marvel at Fred's ARTWORKS...and this (quite interesting) site I checked out in preparation of the trip, too, instantly alerted me not to go in winter:

In summer I will probably feel like at home here in Schleswig-Holstein, with all the Holsteiner Schwarzbunte-s around:

Name the President who cared little for music.

[Eva Elisabeth]

One who cares little for theater is George Bush, but he may like music.
RR?

[Gene C]

Grant?
"I know only two tunes; one of them is Yankee Doodle, the other isn't".

[Anita]

Gene, you nailed it. Because I'm so late replying, you win a prize. It's an iTune of Grant whistling "The Other".

Ulysses S. Grant, Jr., known as "Buck" stated " Music he cared little for. He didn't hate it, but it interrupted his train of thought. Sometimes he submitted to listening to some simple song, but generally he avoided any kind of music. He called it noise. It always amused us to hear the story of some woman singing for him, because we know that he would run if he could at such a moment."

And he didn't even live to the experience of twelve-tone technique or heavy metal...

Which First Lady wrote this?

"I will never consent to have our sex considered...inferior...Let each planet shine in their own orbit. God and nature designed it so - if man is Lord, woman is Lordess - that is what I contend for."

[Wild Bill]

Abigail Adams

[RJNorton]

Excellent, Bill! These words were written on July 19, 1799, by Abigail Adams in a letter to Elizabeth Shaw Peabody.

You win best wishes for a beautiful spring in Arizona.

[Wild Bill]

Spring was February. As soon as this cold spell leaves it will go to summer or pure hell!

But thanks

[RJNorton]

What is the name of this First Lady?

[Eva Elisabeth]

Jacqueline Lee Bouvier (when the photo was taken?)?

[RJNorton]

Excellent try (and logical to my eyes, too), but it is not her. It's another First Lady.

[Wild Bill]

Betty Ford

[Anita]

I second Bill.
