Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum

Today I visited the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library which is located in Simi Valley, CA (35 miles northwest of Los Angeles).  The library is perched on a mountaintop with sweeping views of the surrounding mountains, valleys and on a clear day the Pacific Ocean.

Truly, the Reagan Library is one of California's most beautiful and unique destinations.

One of the items that I was actually surprised to see on display was the tool used in the assassination attempt of President Reagan as well as the suit he was wearing that day.
