The rally was great! I decided to forgo the pavilion scene with 3,000 of my neighbors and I crowded together,and later found out one needed to be there by 7:00 to get in the line to get screened to enter the pavilion! So I took Gypsy for her walk, put in a load of laundry and went over there about 9:30. There were 1,000 to 1,500 of us on the lawn outside the pavilion; youngsters, oldsters, moms with strollers and men in business suits, and they played lots of good music to keep entertained. We listened to speeches from 10:30 to 11:00 by local/state dignitary types like Kit Bond, Kenny Hulshuf, etc.
Right before we saw John and Sarah, this big good-looking guy was waving at the crowd from the ramp up to the pavilion. Everyone started screaming, and then I figured it out, it was Todd Palin! They all arrived about 11:15. John and Sarah stopped on their way in to the pavilion and addressed all of us that were on the lawn. Everyone kept yelling John McCain and SARAH, over and over. It was super cool.
Unfortunately the sound system went on the fritz, and I had to come home and watch the CNN video to see what they said. Oh, well, such is life! LSA
Sounds like she’s a bigger celebrity than Obama. Hehehe...
I don't know if they'll be coming to MA. I could understand if they just bagged it as a lost cause. If they do come to the area, I'd love to go see them!
Somehow I’d missed that you were going to a rally! How cool!
