The RNC is in the process of taking over our town. My home is less than two miles from this spot - the convention site is also between my house and my office - should get really interesting. I will have more photos later today. I understand the barricades are up - the freeway exits are blocked and the Secret Service is in town. More to come..............
Should be fun~Ha! Oh well at least after this it's another city in another 4 years.
ReplyDeleteSuzann, this reminds me of the second time we were in Santiago de Chile.
ReplyDeleteWe were in a taxi, with a couple from Mexico (she) and USA (he)- and suddenly the Taxi had to stop. In the middle of the large road.
- Why, I thought
Then some black Cars with red and blue lights came down the road.
- An accident, I asked the chauffeur.
- No no - he said
Then 6 black limmos.
Then a at least ten Polices on MC's.
- Why, what, I asked the Taxi diver?
- Oh - thats the Old man he replied. (Pinochet)
- ok, I replied, what is he afraid from?
-- he he , was the Taxi drivers response.

We are so alike - - -
excuse my partisanship, but if that many republicans were going to be anywhere near me i would be having a total anxiety attack and would be looking for a way to escape, somewhere else to visit until they left town! ;))
ReplyDeleteOh, Lord! I have to agree with Sky! The crowds and Secret Service, but most of all the Republicans! I would definitely be lookinf for a way to escape!!
