Were the families there...
YES...MANY AND MANY...they were graciously allowed to enter the shuttle buses first, while we others waited in prayerful respect for each of them ...
Parking was FULL..we had to park in a Over flow lot, definitely not in walking distance!!! so shuttle buses were used...and again...NO COMPLAINTS FROM anyone that I heard...Park Rangers were thanking everyone for coming and for their great patience ...
Hubby and I chatted with a couple from Indiana PA. who took fantastic pic’s..only wish I had asked him to email them to me... He kindly showed them to us as we waited for the bus...They were beautiful ...
Once we boarded the shuttle bus, we were told we would remain on the bus for a while...THE ENTIRE AREA WAS ON A ‘LOCKED DOWN’
Seems the POTUS and his Team were in the air, and we had to wait...that wait lasted One hour and twenty min.. lol
everyone chatted with each other sitting near by...we could hear helicopters coming in...but had cloudy skies...
After the Service ended...we were ‘LOCKED DOWN', at the Memorial Site ’ until the POTUS AND FLOTUS were safely on Marine One, and that beauty flew low over the crowd, and I bet the DJT requested that...people waved, and shook their hats...and there were lots of MAGA Hats...
Our POTUS deserved that show of respect and love...He is treated so unkindly that it has become disgusting...jmo..
