"It is extremely cold here.
We encountered no traffic on our drive up from Atlanta today, but many cars sporting Obama bumper stickers. In the McDonald's in Gastonia, NC we struck up a conversation with a woman and swapped info we had learned about Inauguration Day. She's heard that the Metro was running out of tickets. We knew about the concert on the Mall tomorrow starring Mary Blige, Bono, and Bruce Springsteen.
The excitement is everywhere. As George Washington said upon his inauguration in 1789:
“I was summoned by my country, whose voice I can never hear but with veneration and love.”
We are here to be a part of this love. Stay tuned."
