Helicopter shot NO GOOD.
Weather on 9.12 would not have permitted a bright SUNNY DAY pic like that. Clouds were way to THICK
Additionally, I observed on the news that much of the green space on the mall was empty of people, either from Friday rain wetness or lack of permit to use that space.
Now, the crowd was reported to go back as far as the Washington Monument.
Yup. Tropical depression moved off the east coast and it threatened to rain all day.
But, that's OK! Our guys and gals got to "Fight in the Shade."
