We were amazed to see the traffic headed west toward the library. It was clear to us things were going to get a lot worse. There just isn't the parking available to service this amount of traffic.
It was great seeing you also.
Just got back from my attempt to get to Moorpark College and then on to the Library. We left at 8:45pm from OC and took the 405 to the 101 to the 23. We were stopped short of the Collins exit by about 2.5 miles. KABC radio had a guy in the bus line that had waited 4.5 hours and still had aways to go. Other stations are saying the wait is approaching six hours and growing. I have a 10:00 in San Diego, my wife has a noon flight to Chicago and my daughter works at 11:00 am. We turned around. It took us 30 minutes to get to the point where we could exit via the shoulder at the next exit.
The out pouring of respect from Southern Californians and others that have traveled to this area is immense and impressive. KABC estimated the crowd at the college at 30k and the back-up on the Freeways stretches for miles. God Bless those trying to get to the Library and God Bless the FReepers for what they did.
God Bless President Reagan and his family.
