Cool! :-) Good crowd?
Rick's appearance was delayed, no doubt as they were waiting on the AL and MS returns, but the crowd stayed patient and at a few points, sang and prayed together while waaiting.
Rick and his family were incredibly gracious, and even though it was obvious they'd had a long day, stayed much later than they'd anticipated to shake hands, sign autographs etc.
Rick autographed my campaign sign, and I was able to have a brief exchange with him. His Secret Service detail was very professional and kept him moving down the line, but the crowd was ery enthusiastic, and Rick's speech directly addressed what is the biggest issue in this area...and that's getting the oil & gas industry back on its feet.
He was very well received, and made a solid impression.
