Part 3 of things that stood out to me:
-
He loved Jelly Belly jelly beans. There was a canister of them in the
reproduction of the oval office, as well as a mosaic of his face done in
Jelly Belly jelly beans!
 |
| Reproduction of Oval Office (unlike the one in GWB museum, you couldn't walk around in it or sit at the desk) |
 |
| Canister of Jelly Belly jelly beans |
 |
| Dimensions:
4 ft wide x 4 ft high, Artist: Peter Rocha, San Francisco, California.
Approximate number of beans: 10,000 in total. Media: painted in oil then
covered in a mosaic tradition with Jelly Belly beans to create depth
and dimension, beans then protected and permanently preserved with
polyurethane. |
- Air Force One and Marine One (helicopter) are on display at the Library - neat to be able to walk around and through them!
 |
| This Air Force One is the one that was in use when Reagan was president, and he logged the most miles in it of any of the 7 presidents who used it. |
 |
| I got a picture of my sweet husband - from the back, anyway! |
 |
| The view outside was really beautiful - the library sits up on a hill. |
 |
| Another view of Air Force One |
 |
| One of the armored cars that was also on display. |
More to come in part 4!
