Jeremy and I went to the JFK Library with our friend TJ who was visiting Boston and was able to spend some time with us. It was a really cool museum with memorabilia, live footage, and videos that helped demonstrate the impact that JFK had on the US and what his life was like as a politician. Here are some photos:

This cartoon reminded me of what many have said about Obama today
