Probably will not visit any others, unless we are in the area on a trip. It is well worth the time to visit one.
The water fountain in the parking lot.
Going inside.
A moon rock from an Apollo mission.
The garden area, which was very nice and relaxing.
Sad to say, Elvis actually visited Nixon to help with the war on drugs. We all know how that ended for Elvis. 
A replica of the Lincoln room, which (according to the information there) was Lincoln and Mrs. Lincolns favorite room in the White House.
This room was very interesting. There are 10 life sized figures of influential world leaders during Nixon's presidency. They were wearing actual clothing that was sprayed with some kind of coating to harden then the same as the statues.
The actual house his father bought (from a catalog) and built. Where Richard Nixon was born.When we toured the house (with a guide) we were informed that over 80% of the furnishings are the actual ones. The only surviving son (out of 5) still lives. He was very instrumental in obtaining actual furnishings from and for the house during it's restoration back to the original. In an area back of the house are the grave sites for Richard and Pat Nixon. There were many different rooms and things to see while there. I spent little time in the Vietnam room and the Watergate room, but enjoyed all the other rooms.
Another view of the garden area. I have many other photos, but way to many to post. It was a pleasant visit. My goal was to go "before" school let out or wait until the fall. Anyone who has ever driven in any of the Los Angeles area during the summer understands. It is bad during school time also, but not as bad a summer traffic.

Keith found a bearded dragon on the side of the road, a month or so ago. Here she is on my arm, as you can see she is a fat bearded dragon.
He does have a plexi glass container for her, a large one, but you can see that she does like to go out in the sun.
We spent some time at the beach. You cannot go to the ocean side and not visit the beach.
This tree is a Moreton Bay fig. Imported from Australia by a little girl in a tin bucket and planted around 1877.
It is one gigantic tree.
Behind us you can see the roots.

We had an enjoyable time.
