Liz Armstrong: Easy walk with mixture of shade and sun. In the morning we went left and the hike started in shade. If it were getter hotter I would start on the right and finish in the shade. We finished in 45-50 minutes at a brisk pace.
Ankit Patel: Hamilton Field was an important local air force base during WWII and it would continue to run until 1974. This unassuming museum is one of the best in the region, despite frequently being overlooked.
It’s free to visit and has a wonderful research library featuring a collection of documents from the war. Medals and equipment line the exhibits and, if you’re big a kid, the cockpit simulator here is lots of fun.
The best thing about this museum is many veterans choose to work here, and they are often happy to share their knowledge and experience of 20th-century conflicts.
