I don’t know about you but when history is made its always good to be there to say that I was there. Well I can tell my kids in the future that I was there when the first African American President was sworn in. I can tell you that this is an experience that was well worth the trip and even thought it was a headache just trying to get everything down. The energy at the National Mall was just electric. Just to bad there was no electricity to power a heater; cause it was cold as all get out. I think that the high for that day was 32 degrees and standing in one place for hours your muscles get so stiff and the you move, you really ain’t going anywhere. But that didn’t hinder the fact that there where so many people out there. It was an experience that I would say for people to experience at least one, cause I think if you get out there and say that you where there and you have done it; but after the first one and you walking all over the place trying to figure out where you are going and trying to figure out that most the people there don’t know whats going on. People trying to leave and road closed and metro stations closed and on top of that local PD are allowing only a few people into the stations at a few time. People started to get a little testy, but I will say that most people kept there cool and rolled with the punch and everything worked out just fine and eventually people made it home without to much drama. Well except for the only lady who got injured in the metro station early in the day causing a few delays and causing the delays later on in the day.
I will say this thought it was good to see so many people from Atlanta area. I meet so many people from Smyrna, laweranceville, Atlanta, Cherokee county just to name a few and they where all saying the same thing. I want to go back to Atlanta “Its a lot warmer.” Well I could doubt them on that one cause it was cold.
I have a lot of pictures to share with you and I know that is what you all like so see. I have more on my facebook page if you would like to see more as well.











Wow- it looks like an incredible (and frozen) time. Glad you guys had fun
