Following the president

So I followed the President around the country today. This morning Mary
and I went on a tour of the White House with some people Mary works with
and a family from Germany. The tour was fun. There was quite a lot
involved with getting into the white house. Including not having any bags
or cameras. And there was a surprisingly few number of rooms available to
see. But the self guided tour was interesting and definitely worth the
short amount of time that it took.

So as we were exiting the Whitehouse we watched Marine 1 take off. A few
of the people in our group saw GW actually boarding the chopper. Sort of
interesting to see but really nothing too exciting.

until of course I land in Nashville and find out that just before I touched
down the airspace had been closed due to the President landing.....

I sure hope he isn't headed to Philly tomorrow night because then I'm sure
my name would make it to the top of all kinds of watch lists :-)
