Inauguration Day




Thanks to our friend George for this pic of Asaka and Dwight









Wow!!  We had a great day at the National mall with 800,00 of our best friends.  Up at 2:45am to be out the door at 3:30 to catch the 4:00 Metro to get there before 5am - and yes, there were lots and lots of people already there.  We staked out a spot and settled in for the long wait until 11:30 when the ceremony began, then watched it all happen on the big jumbotron set up for all of us who did not have tickets that would get us close enough to see it.  Even though we watched the inauguration on the screen, it was remarkable to be there.  The excitement and energy of the crowd infused me with hope for our country.

Glad to have you in office, Mr. President
