I loved old airplanes and the race to the moon when I was a kid, and have always wanted to go to the Smithsonian Aerospace Museum in Washington DC. Well, thanks to a shoot Mary Knopp (

I had a blast looking at the actual airplanes and rockets and spacecraft I had been reading about all these years. If you are a gearhead of any type, I can recommend making the effort.
