Oh.
There you are, sir, Mr. Howell.
Thank you.
Yes, Mr. President.
George, I wanted to tell you that if your in-laws and so forth, if they'd like to come over and see the White House, you're welcome to bring them over.
All right.
Thank you very much.
They'd probably enjoy that before they go back.
Yeah.
Well, it's like tomorrow morning would be a good time.
You can just look around or any time that fits you, you know.
Okay.
And we'll give them a special tour and take them around.
What time would that be?
You tell me what time you'd like.
I'll be there all morning.
I see.
Well, how about 10 o'clock?
Yeah, all right.
Fine.
Ten o'clock, I'll be in the office, and you just come on in, bring them all in, and then we'll have them taken.
The Christmas tree's still up, and they can see the decorations, and it'll be a great thrill for them.
Good.
We'll do that.
Bring the kids, too.
Yeah, I'll bring the whole gang.
All right, bye.
Bye.
Thank you, Mr. President.
