    The Richard Nixon Presidential Museum is a must visit. If you were alive during his career of…read morelearning about who he was, every American must visit. From his early years as a youth, his military years, to his career as a Senator, Vice President, then President of America, it is all here. When people talk of this man, Watergate is always in the forefront of the conversation. And what happened then was a dark time for America, but that is not the full story of President Nixon. He did so much good during his service to our country, and it is all highlighted here. Every person should visit this museum. President Nixon started the EPA, the Clean Air Act, OSHA, Title IX, he was instrumental in the woman's rights movement and brought the Vietnam war to an end. He was the first U.S. President to visit both China and the USSR in attempts to bridge relations with these countries. And these are only a few of his accomplishments which are still shaping our country and our lives today. He loved his wife Pat greatly, and their relationship is one of the best parts of this tour. But what's more, the museum is actually on the very land his family owned. The house he was born and grew up in is still here on the property and the docents will take you on a guided tour thru it. Both his wife and he are laid to rest here too. Quite a place.

The grounds are well maintained and was the perfect backdrop for an outdoor wedding, greatly assisted by SoCal weather.

This was the location of the polling booths for the primary election that I was assigned to. So I ventured to the new library. Parking was easy and plentiful with numerous spaces available that are covered by solar panels allowing guests to park in the shade. I was in a hurry so I didn't walk most of the library, I just walked into the room that was being used as a polling place, checked in, received my ballot, voted, and submitted the ballot into the machine, and exited the library all in about 10 minutes. I'll return in the future to explore the grounds and campus. What I saw was clean, nice, and tastefully appointed.

There charge $4 per ticket that can be used for food and/or beverages. There was a children area: art and craft, bouncers, face painting, story book reading area, variety entertainment, arcade free interactive video games. Children received free popcorn, snow cone, cotton candy, balloons and light stick. All of this was sponsored by North Hills Church. There were 2 live band stage show. There were plenty of food booth, vendor and bar. The exhibitions at the Brea Art Gallery was free. The display of arts were very nice and unique. We also got a chance to see live theater piano performances at the Curtis Theater. It was beautifully played. Overall, we enjoyed our walkthrough the Brea Fest Event.

A favorite was a chocolate Nothing Bundt Cake. There were all kinds of food, many choices with something for everyone. Sandwiches, pizza, pasta, ice cream, cake, fish, smoothies, soda and water, beer and wine, A wristband for alcohol was $2, plus the drinks. Presale tickets were 7 for $20, $4 each at the event. I had too many tickets, and I had to use them all that night, so I ate more than I usually do. There were 3 entertainment stages. We sat at a table by the Jimmy's Buffet tribute band. They did 3 sets. Music was fun. Didn't sound like Jimmy, but it was fun to watch. The band was from San Diego and they decorated the stage. We had a fun time.

My mother and I have been to Timeless Melodies, actually 3 of them so far! They are very well done and keep us smiling the entire way through. We learned a little, reminisced a little and even sang along a little. The speaker, Larry Maurer, is incredibly knowledgeable and keeps the event moving at a pace that keeps us all entertained and awake! Parking was a breeze, the seats in the theater were comfy with great views too. Prior to going into the theater, we strolled around the hallway exhibits and the wonderful gift shop. The gift shop has high quality and unique gifts of all kinds; jewelry, kids books, art, collectibles, and so much more! Worth taking a look around. Thank you Bowers for offering these wonderful series of events!! Looking at the calendar online, there are so many and all of them very intriguing. Thank you again!

The day we came was actually during the world cup and in the main lobby they actually set up a projector and chairs in AC to watch the game! I don't think I've ever been to such a lively museum! LOL And we didn't know this but on Father's Day you can go in for free if you're a dad! Dang we lost our chance but the pricing here isn't to bad actually! About $18/person and if you want to park in the parking lot it's $6. Not to bad! Plenty of parking and clean :) I like that the museum is big, clean, and well thought up when each room is themed! And they also host monthly family culture days! Where they gave free snacks and other local businesses in the community were there to promote their services! If you're still thinking about coming here, just come! You won't regret it :D

There are individual sections per vendor but unclear how it works as most vendors are at their post but there are staff walking around. I did see people walk in and out to check out this place. It's not captivating enough. If you want boba carriers or single drink carriers, they have it. They also have Asian snacks and drinks, souvenir trinkets and magnets, building block toys, little fortune telling thing like they have in Taiwan for $5, artsy stuff..

For a Friday evening, the crowd inside is very light...so I hope this establishment survives. Inside the store, the "stall" set up area feels incomplete or semi-vacant. Most of the vendors are selling knick-knacks rather than food, which wasn't what I expected from a night market-inspired space -- more food stall or hot bar please. The area is sub-divided into sections that seem to try to create a little of everything -- there are spaces for gatherings, worship, paintings and a small gift shop. Food options are limited to just a couple of snack bars, which don't really compare to as much options like 99 Ranch. There is also offering to learn mahjong! One bright spot, though, is the wishing tree, which is a very welcoming and thoughtful touch. Too bad, the paper was out.

Right now building one, there is an incredible art exhibit on the history of skateboarding in Anaheim. It's awesome. I took so many photos lol. I used to skateboard when I was a kid. Loved every second of this exhibit. The second building houses so very cool artifacts from the 1800s to the 1900s reflecting the history of Anaheim. It was cool to go back in time to see the history of a place I called home. I saw the history of Anaheim vineyards and Valencia oranges, I saw a lot of information on the ranchos in Anaheim. The Anaheim street names are all named after very important ranchers and farmers in Anaheim. For example I saw the name of a rancher Don Bernardo Yorba who created the greatest rancho of California's Golden Age. No wonder we have cities like Yorba Linda and streets with name Bernardo. Fascinating stuff. Also, there was a video recalling the bicentennial which was July 4, 1976. It was a big deal. There were other artifacts like photographs and a typewriter, luggage and military uniforms. So much history packed in that museum. If you love to visit museums, Muzeo is one that you must visit. They provide validated parking in lots 3 and 5. If you are an Anaheim resident, the cost is only $8. Regular admission is $10. There are discounts for seniors, students and children.

It's a very unique place that reminds me of a mini-Madonna Inn. There's a large outdoor area with a huge gazebo like structure, a massive dance floor, another outdoor area that is like a small Main Street ala Disneyland, a Victorian styled room for people to relax, changing rooms, plenty of restrooms, plus my other amenities that I can't remember. The decorations are thematic and change every couple of months. They usually are Asian/African/European/Hispanic themes. They even provide appropriate themed entertainment in the outdoor gazebo. The African dancers are a blast! The one thing that everyone likes about this place is that they really look after it's clients. They have a seamstress on duty for dances to prevent someone's dream night from turning into a nightmare. For chapparones, there's a room all to themselves to chill out and talk crap about how the kids are dressed and they even get their own snacks. They even provide their own security! I highly reccommend this place if anyone is looking to hold a large party/dance/soiree/shindig. There's really no where else like it and it's a safe and fun environment.
