Inauguration Day

So, I am back in california now. Below are some more pictures from Inauguration day. This first one is where I watched the inauguration from. Although I wasn't pressed against the fence, I could touch it.

Looking back down the mall was amazing, just a see of humanity. It was so cold you could see heat rising off the people like the street on a hot day.

Here is Rick Warren praying, when they introduced him some people booed. I yelled, "Separate church and state!" I said the same when people said, "Amen."


Here he is the man of the hour...

Thanks to everyone who made this trip possible for me. I love you all.

Picking-up the Ticket

Monday morning I headed down to the Cannon House Office Building to pick-up my ticket, turns out a couple of thousand other people had to do that as well. I was on the early side, but as I left people were streaming out of the metro.


I started in line by the bench near the person in the red coat. The line stretched down around the corner as far as I could see. Everyone had to pass through airport style security (metal detector, x-ray, shoes off). Once the building opened it took about an hour for me to make in to the building. When I left I heard the line was over two and a half hours long!


The temperature was fairly low, I am guessing high twenties or low thirties. We had a brief scare when it started snowing, but it only lasted for a few minutes.

Right before I got in the building, a group of high school students came out and I recognized a letterman jacket. There was a contingent from Davis High. Go Blue Devils!


Here I am with the congressman before I picked up my ticket. He had a nice food spread in his office and was chatting with people as they came by to pick up their tickets.


Once I had my ticket packet, I jumped onto the metro and headed back out to my Aunt and Uncle's in Alexandria, VA and we went to see the farm.

Mr. Fairclough Goes to Washington

Here I am leaving this morning. I don't know where I will be relative to TV cameras but look for the red hat and the Proterospongia flag.

Off like a prom dress!

Alright, I am off to catch my flight to the Presidential Inauguration! I will try to post pictures, video and commentary during the trip, so check back. I'll say, "hi" to Obama for everyone.
