Inauguration Week Pics 2

Posted Jan 26 2009

Images from the Swearing-In ceremony and the "great escape." There were so many people there that we obviously had unique experiences. Some got out of the Mall within a few hours, others never made it, others, like me, occupied ourselves with other things like the Smithsonian Museums. However, I can't imagine anyone saying that they weren't changed by the experience. I'm STILL processing it all and I'm definitely a better person because of it. Simply amazing. Check out the blog for more info on these pics. Click here to see pics from the time leading up to the Inauguration.

  • The Third Street Gate
  • All it takes is desire!
  • There was a lot of this going on
  • There was probably still a two hour wait and it looked like this!
  • One of the many fences that didn't survive the day
  • It was even colder than it looked
  • Not what they were designed for, but I probably would've been up there if I had fit
  • Mountains of people
  • Do you think his commanding officer would've approved?
  • That's a whole mess of people!
  • In every nook and cranny
  • An Obama sighting?
  • Apparently there are some Democrats in Texas
  • Pastor Warren silenced the crowd
  • Can you spot Barack and Michelle?
  • Can you see Obama now? Hint: there are only two Black guys in the picture and one looks like Ossie D

  • 'Hope' ain't just a word in these parts!
  • Kinda glad I wasn't standing over here
  • I would've brought a few reams of paper too, if someone had told me

  • The 'line' for the train
  • I came all the way to DC and all I got to guard was some laundry
  • Even if you don't like planes, the museum beat being outdoors
  • Might as well brush up on my astronomy
  • Or catch some Zs
  • Plenty more room to crash. No pun intended.
