First of all – this is not Grace, it’s Kevin. Grace and Bette and Randy are in line for the Obama Rally downtown Springfield. I am here at home manning Obama Rally Central. Randy is supposed to take a phone-picture of the waiting line and send it to me. I’ll post it as soon as it arrives. Grace said they are about a block and a half from the screening port, and there are an estimated 500 people ahead of them.
Grace got up before 8 (on a Saturday morning!!!), read the front page story about Sen. Biden being announced as VP-candidate, showered, and dragged out the door to be downtown to find parking. They were able to park close – by the county building! I stayed home to clean up from last night’s party and prepare for today’s party (plus, I feel another kidney stone journeying, and standing in a huge line for a few hours did not sound conducive to facilitating the passage… sorry, TMI!!)
Okay, photo when it arrives…
