Simply notes from the Inauguration:
Michelle's loud and nice dress. I was so excited to see her, I did not think that would happen by the mere sight of her
Bush’s awkward hand slap and smile at the lady on the video at the door while walking through the hallway leading out of the Capital. Smile was one of mischief, and the hand slap showed his awkwardness (in so many ways).
Silence from the crowd when Bush was announced. (wonder what people were actually yelling in D.C.? I am sure there were some interesting words thrown out.)
Adorable little girls, who were taking pictures like kids will do, even during the inauguration.
Obama’s stoic look, very strong and yet cognizant of the time/moment.
The MILLIONS of people watching/listening. Billions?
Elite Politician said when he exited the Capital to presumably another politician, "I decided to stay. It is like Groundhog Day." Then he laughed. This is what is wrong with politics.
The spirited speech by the the pastor.
The waving flags in the background...looked like a movie.
John Williams is amazing. Interesting to see a musical number, especially classic music, to be played mixed with a soulful, but not very clear, Aretha Franklin. What a powerful and true song.
I actually teared up a bit...did not expect that.
Supreme Court Justice John Roberts seemed to try to mess him up twice in assisting . Wonder how their relationship is/will be?
The grey hair of all the ex-Presidents. Wonder what Obama will look like in a couple years?
Obama on the t-shirts and hats of people, "O-BAM-A" chants coming from the crowd. Such a following, will be interesting to see how Tour de-Fate will be? Will he be re-elected?
Showed an Army cadet and he looked like a sleeping lamb...odd.
Obama's speech was very good, especially liked the connection to George Washington's message.
Can't believe this time has actually come.
Felt so good to see George W. get on the helicopter and fly far, far away.
Giddy Up!
P.S. - Well done Cadillac. Nice coverage/advertisement with Obama's new limo.
