A local must-see is the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum (40 Presidential Drive, Simi Valley). The sweeping views from this hilltop location adjacent to Wood Ranch is reason enough to stop by. But the museum is really enjoyable and quite interesting for all ages. There is a ton of memorabilia and artifacts from throughout Reagan's life on display.
The huge Air Force One Pavilion opened in October 2005. It features the actual Air Force One aircraft used from 1973 to 2001. There are also motorcade vehicles and other items on display.
Mark your calendars each December for the annual Christmas Around the World with decorated trees representing countries Reagan visited while President. The kids will love it.
The museum is open daily from 10 to 5 except Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day. More information at www.reaganfoundation.org or 805.522.2977.
