Reagan

With the passing of President Reagan today, I figured I'd put up one of the pictures I took up at the Presidential Library on December 30th of last year. I was out taking pictures of the Simi hillsides (so I can use them next year as a comparison) and ended up at the library where I took a bunch of photos of various things.

The one on the right (click for the full sized image) was taken sitting on a new lawn facing toward the northwest (those are the mountains out near Ojai). The picture doesn't do the view justice, c'est la vie. It was a somewhat cloudy day; on a clear, sunny day the view is spectacular. I didn't take many pictures on the other side of the library where Reagan will be laid to rest because I was chased out... I was in an area that was new and still closed off (I'd ended up coming up the hillside and avoiding all the yellow taped off areas).
