Ronald Reagan Library in Simi Valley, CA

Rating: You Should Go

The Ronald Reagan Library is a fun place to go if you're interested in American history, especially foreign policy. Many of the issues Reagan faced in his presidency still affect us today.  I am not a Republican and I don't know a lot about our presidents, but I still found this Library/Museum fascinating. The admission for adults is $15 each, but parking is free. Kids 10 and under are also free. We actually found a Groupon

Super Sandwich in Montclair, CA

I heard about Super Sandwich from my mother-in-law. Since I want to try little restaurants around where we live now, I stopped by. It's the kind of place that I probably wouldn't notice just driving by, even though it's right on a main street. It's really clean inside and there's a
