Suggestions welcome.

She also loves Costco hotdogs. They got a cheesy foodcart somewhere nearby we could stop?

Thank you.

I love the replica of the Oval Office. In it, you hear RR’s own voice telling you how much he revered the history of the room, so he never even removed his jacket while within its walls. Makes you think of how easily Clinton dropped his pants in there.

I also love AF1.

Air Force One is worth a look. Not sure how they manage the wheelchair accessibility to it, but I think they do. Also, my kids like the chunk of the Berlin wall.

The view off the back balcony is spectacular. A tour around the outside gardens, planes, and statues is very nice.

Airforce One is great but I don't know how practical it would be to go through it.

1) go early, parking gets full
2) go early also because it will get VERY hot in afternoon (esp the end of this week: heat wave hitting LA county!) so drink plenty of water!!!
3) i dont know of hot dog stuff there...simi valley surrounding area offers pretty generic options — but I think there is a nice sandwich type place where you can get tea, cold drinks inside the library. :)
4) the VIEW is gorgeous esp on clear day you can get a view of ocean in the distance.
5) if you allot several hours, i think you’ll be able to cover the whole museum. My interest is in all the Cold War stuff.

Visit the grave site for a moment to contemplate how fortunate all of us are for this great man. Then take a look at the slab of concrete Berlin wall, with its West side and its East side. It speaks volumes. Then go back to his resting place and thank him again.

I still get goosebumps! They loop (or at least they used to) a recording of President Reagan’s speech saying, “Mr. Gobachav, tear down this wall!”

My MIL is 95, and she sleeps more than a teenager. Congrats on an alert and active 99 year old.

It is great she is still around for you. Mine straightened my kids out when they were in high school, and they were being “taught” about WWII. Best teacher is someone with a little life experience.
