Vol 3, Iss 4Washington, DC - This last weekend (Saturday, 20 January 2001)
we saw the swearing-in of our 43rd President, George "Duhhh...
bya" Bush. A few roped-off protesters also gathered
along Pennsylvania Avenue to let their voices heard.
If you had enough extra cash lying around after paying
your natural gas heating bill and were in the nation's capital, you
might have been able to purchase one of those high-priced tickets
to view the parade in the stands along the parade route...
OR... You might have been lucky enough to afford a
tux, boots, etc. (Texas formal clothing) to attend
one the fancy inaugural balls with all the other Republicans.
If... they had not sold out early, that is!
Vol 3, Iss 4Washington, DC - What can I say, but it was a wet, cold, and a miserable day when
G . "Dubya" Bush took office.
I got down close to the parade route on Pennsylvania
Avenue in time to see the first family head for home from the Capital
at 2:30 PM.
Well, I didn't actually see anything with all
the rich folk who paid to sit in the bleachers and the protesters
at the Archive-Navy Memorial (See pictures).
Your dad & unk sound like a real pair!!! Speaking of Blue River - it brought back memories of an old friend & I that also camped there one weekend [more]... ~Jan Carver
