Time for a Rally . . .
No, I'm not talking about Wall Street (although a rally there would be nice as well). On Sunday afternoon, after rehearsing music for a wedding, Lora & I (and my mom) went down to show our support for the McCain/Palin ticket by attending the rally at the Omaha Music Hall.
When we got there, the line stretched around 3 sides of the Civic Auditorium. We probably wouldn't have made it in at all, but an older gentlemen came to us while we were in the back of the line and told us that there was a shorter line somewhere else. We followed him, and sure enough, he was right!
We stood in the overflow area, as the Music Hall was already full by that time. Little did we know that we would actually be the first to hear Sarah speak. After watching the Republican Senators and Congressmen speak via a big screen TV and speakers, Governor Palin stepped in and spoke to us in the overflow area first.
One of the difficulties in being "vertically challenged" is that trying to take pictures when tall people stand in front of you is . . . well . . . challenging! I held my camera over my head, aimed the best I could and took lots of shots. The one above was one of the better shots. I could have cropped and zoomed, but I thought that the raw shot gives you a better idea of what it was like to be there.
It was a great time and fun to hear Sarah speak. Just wish McCain could have been there as well.
I guess I've tipped my hand as to who I'm voting for . . . . . . .
Also - we'll have some updates of the music room soon. The third wall has been painted and is currently being striped.
See ya!
