Jun 2013

Went down to the gathering with all the politicians giving their speeches and, basically, just said to myself - crap!!!!!!! forgot to bring anything with which to take a picture. saw tons of people using their smartphones - I was just on my way to get something for dinner and had nothing with me.

Lots of press there. Tons of people taking pix and network feeds being sent out.

Still hearing cheers going out right now. Earlier they had a choir singing God Bless America - very moving to hear the last verse (and the land of the free). Giant shout from the crowd.
