Quite a sight and tribute to one Ronald Reagan I thought those out of range would greatly appreciate :)

It's very much appreciated for those of us who can't travel to California or Washington. TV can convey part of the experience, but it's the "boots on the ground" folks like you who can bring this to us because you're there.

Wow! I just am so touched that people are turning out, no matter what, to pay their respects. I honestly don't believe the media thought this would happen (big surprise) but I really believe the Reagan family didn't believe it either. This is what makes me so proud! I am so glad people are going and showing the family how much he was loved, no matter what the media made them believe.

For the first time in my life, I wish I was in CA.

it was clear the media people there were overwhelmed and unable to come to grips with how to cover the story. My son, whom I brought, joked about some of them editing some video in their van and he (my son) joked that they were probably trying to find somebody they could portray as dumb who they could make something up with. I joked with folks in line that it would be fun to play reporter with people in the line, "what is it about Reagan that drew you here? was it the slick packaging? or did he appeal to your darkest instincts? or was it just greed?"
