Singing for Hillary

Sep 15, 2008 22:15

Today we had a dedication ceremony at work. We dedicated our building to our former state representative, Sherwood (Sherry) Boehlert. Because he had the job for 24 years and was well known and respected, our current Senator, Hillary Clinton, showed up. We have a chorus at work. It's not really a formal thing, just a bunch of musicians who get together and sing when there's some kind of event at work. We got to sing at the beginning and end of the ceremony. We sang the national anthem (a capella in four part harmony) at the beginning and the Air Force song at the end. I got to stand three people away from Hillary Clinton :) At the end, when we walked out of the room, we kind of got in the way of the secret service. We didn't realize all the important people were leaving the same way. So we went down a side corridor and both Hillary and Sherry passed us by and said thanks for singing :)
