18-19 Feb. Stayed closer to my place on Presidents’ Day weekend, going places on Sunday and then again on Monday.
Went out to Disney’s BarnI didn’t ride the train but it looks fun!After the property at Carolwood was bought, people brought the barn and some train stuff out to Griffith ParkHe sure loved his trains!This was the name of a band!Broggie’s tool boxAn aerial view of the property The diorama of the old mine train area was the coolest partRainbow Ridge is still part of big thunder As are the caverns hereThe diorama has moving parts. So cool!Walt’s toolsHe had a real time map of his train. There’s one like this in the Main Street railroad depot for the Disneyland railroad Here is Walt operating it Morse code 😊They only open for a few hours a month so that may be the only time I go. While at Griffith park, I went to see the carousel that inspired Walt to create something family’s could do together…Disneyland!Disney grave at Forest LawnThe statue of David is now green. Strange. Then I visited the site of Walt’s Second Studio on Hyperion Avenue. It’s now a parking lot – the sign is the only remnant On Monday I went to the Nixon library.In honor of the holiday they had live actors. POW place setting in the cabinet roomNixon created the EPA and the Endangered species actThis is his birth home. A very humble beginningHe always loved President Lincoln We still struggle with this!Historic visit to china with the famed handshake. First in decades. Moon landing figures, appropriately defying gravity The phone to the ApolloYaaasss!The house was closed because it was rainy but this is an exact replica apparently The Lincoln room was a favorite haunt. He would sit there reading, studying, working for hours Visited the site of the new Yorba Linda temple while I was out that way
