Susan and I had our older grandchildren, Jackson, 13, and Oliver, 11 for three days, and one of our trips together was to the JFK Library. We were headed for the MIT Museum, got stuck in un-moving traffic for 30 minutes, and I, at a whim, turned off and went to the JFK instead. And what a wonderful museum and library, fascinating to all of us. Here are some pics.
