Really enjoyed listening to this on the podcast. Wish I was going to be there while the exhibit was open.

Thank you!

I enjoyed doing the research. I was surprised at some of the items from the Disney archives, like the piano the Sherman Bros used to play for Walt, the original map of Disneyland... I kept imagining Herb Ryman drawing it with Walt Disney standing over his shoulder and pointing where he wanted the lands. The map is huge, and now every time I see an old program where Walt is standing and pointing to that map I'm going to think that I was actually there and saw it up close.

There were so many items that were so cool to see. I'm really glad I went, and hope some of you can make it there.

I am going to be going to the President Nixon Library next.
