Ronald Reagan Library and Museum


 
 THE RONALD REAGAN MUSEUM AND LIBRARY

Ed and I took a DayTrippers excursion for this visit to Simi valley.
The Library and Museum  complex is situated on a hill overlooking surrounding mountains and valleys.   There is a full sized replica of the Oval Office. The stories of Ronald and Nancy Reagan are told with photos, film clips and artifacts. 

The exhibits represent the life of Ronald Reagan from high school,
college, as governor of California and the presidency






 One can board the actual Air Force One and see a Marine One helicopter and a Presidential Motorcade.

 Presidential gifts are on display including a piece of the Berlin Wall.  Another display area includes items from their ranch.  Other features are a Rose Garden and  a Memorial site.
