Day 52 ~ Wide Open Spaces Tour 2012 ~ Nixon

A full day of Nixon !



We arrived when the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum opened at 10am and spent the whole day there....well Dan did; hehe I didn't (one guess where I went instead)  We experienced the traffic in and around L.A. for the first time leaving the library.  Not a fan of traffic in ANOTHER big city!








Takes your breath away ~ this was the first thing you saw when you entered the Library


Reflecting Pool


EAST Room - Re-Creation of the Executive Mansion's stately East Room in Washington D.C.

Made with Swarovski Crystals!!


So. . .  You can tell who was taking most of the pictures in the beginning of the Museum

Our 37th President ~ Richard Milhous and Pat Ryan Nixon

Nixon's Campaigning cars ~ this is when Dan took over the camera  (lol)


Dignitaries that Nixon dealt from around the world

The arch used for Nixon's daughter's wedding held on the grounds of Capital, it was really pretty

The Rose Garden was beautiful too!

Presidential looking guy hanging around the aircrafts, again

Nixon's childhood house ~ exactly as it stood


I was born in a house my father built ~ he was the only one of the five boys that was actually born in this house
