We ventured out to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library on Saturday with DD for Father's Day. Got there just after they opened - a good thing, since the parking lot filled up quickly and when we left, there were cars parked all along the drive for almost a mile!
Very impressed with the grounds and the Library..we got to go thru Air Force One and the helicopter that Reagan used...the exhibits were very interesting. I even went riding with Ron:
What I didn't expect to see were QUILTS!! They had a baseball exhibit that featured a number of quilts along with bats, gloves, baseball cards, peanut roaster carts, uniforms, models of the old baseball stadiums, pinball games, pictures and even the traveling trunk that Babe Ruth used!..the curator said it was only 1/3 of the collection (Wow!) My apologies for the dimly lit pictures...they have a no-flash rule at the Library, the quilts were behind glass..and there is only so much you can do with editing..
This last one did not have a card explaining who the maker was:
The Baseball exhibit will be at the Library til September 4.

Art and I went to this exhibit too and I was also surprised by the quilts. They were awesome.
