Guess Whose Coming to Town?

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..............

  2. Suzann, this reminds me of the second time we were in Santiago de Chile.
    We 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.

    Best wishes and love from Tor and Anna.

  3. 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! ;))

  5. Hi Suzann!!!
    This definitely does sound like a damp squib! I sympathize with you. I'd like to invite you to join us at www.womenetcetera.com, a website for slightly older women who live life to the brim by embracing transitions and changing with the times! I look forward to seeing you there.:) All the best!
