Obama right down the street from my house

Feb 18, 2009 15:46

Obama gave a speech today at Dobson High School, just a couple of blocks from my house in Mesa, Arizona.

Huge crowds came out to stand in line for a chance at 300 available tickets. I heard that the last person to get a ticket had been in line for over 12 hours, so I'm glad that I didn't try.

I walked to the end of my street this morning and saw the motorcade drive right in front of me. He could have entered the school grounds from either the east or the west and amazingly chose my direction.

This is a still from a video that I took. They were moving pretty fast. That blur in the back window is Obama waving to the crowd.
