Photography: Aerospace Museum of California

As summer winds down, I took my nephew to a few local museums. By far, the Aerospace Museum of California was his favorite. He loved seeing all the planes and playing with all the interactive materials (Legos and other type of building supplies). We spent almost four hours exploring and playing together.

The museum holds another special place for me. My father was in the Air Force and worked at McClellan Air Force Base my entire childhood. It’s also the place a budding journalist (16-year-old me) got to meet President Bill Clinton and see Air Force One.

Let me know if you have a favorite photo and have a great day!

#25: My nephew wanted to take my photo because I “looked like a toy” next to the giant plane.

Also, the Man of Steel now has a permanent place in my van.
