Riding with Ronnie

You could see the Pacific Ocean from the mountain top overlook on what turned out to be a perfect day in every way. No serious traffic on the freeway complex from Hollywood to Simi Valley, no crowds or lines for the Reagan museum or the walk through Air Force One. Then a quiet outdoor lunch under a shade tree near the Memorial Gardens, seated before a deep, verdant valley under calm blue skies. Mounting up for an imaginary trail ride with the memory of our 40th President was just a bonus.
Air Force One, circa 1984. No photography on board.
As the elder guide said, you want pictures? Google them.
They're not kidding. Click here. We can't do better.
