This morning Obama came to Golden. I didn't manage to get tickets to go see him--but I did wait outside to hear him through the loudspeaker and to see him exit the building. One funny thing that happened while waiting was a woman who lived across the street from the building had two McCain signs in her yard. She mowed her lawn over and over and over again for about an hour and a half. At one point the people waiting for Obama to come out started chanting, "missed a spot, missed a spot" I thought it was kind of funny. Obama spent about an hour visiting with families after he gave his speech. We were told that he was not going to make an apperance and that we should clear out. Well--Hazel & I waited and he came out, gave the crowd some waves and away he drove. It was hot, I got sunburnt, but it was worth it. 
I don't want to say too much here in case I offend any friends who are McCain supporters. But, this man gives me hope that the next four years in our country will be much better than they have been.
