I consider a “travel project” to be a series of trips on a certain theme. (Think of each of these as a “travel checklist.”) On this page, I’ll list the ones that I’m currently working on and the ones that I’ve completed.
Completed Travel Projects
- See all remaining US Space Shuttles (4/4 Shuttles Visited)
- See all of the Presidential Museums curated by NARA (13/13 Libraries Visited)
- See all of the manned Apollo and Skylab Capsules (16/16 Capsules Visited. Apollo 1 is not on display, due to the nature of what happened, so the door is included in lieu of the capsule.)
