Hello Mr. President

A few weeks ago the Bush Library was dedicated and all of the living presidents came to town for it. This is W's library, Bush the second for non-texans or democrats, and I am very excited to see it. No matter what you thought of the man, his Library will give an insight into how things were for those eight years.

His father's library is at A&M and if you ask me W should have put his library there but that is OK at least I will get a chance to see it since it is here in Dallas. I did tour the Bush Sr. library several times while I was in school. It was so neat to see some of the things that he collected and of course some of Barbra's pearls. I also saw Bush Sr. around campus several times and once at the rec center. It is really an honor to be a part of one of these libraries.

Since all of the living president's were gathering in Dallas and it is well known that they fly into Love Field, the airport right by my office I spent most of the day looking for Air Force One. I will admit that I thought I saw it several times until I really gave up. As I was waiting for the elevator there it was and I grabbed my phone and took a pic. Now it was huge in the sky but not so much when I took a picture. Yes I know this looks photoshopped but give me a little credit if I was going to photoshop this I would have done a better job. Oh well, it was still fun to see him.

The worst picture ever of air force one, you should just trust me

As I walked out to my car I decided to take the back road home so that I wouldn't get stuck in traffic due to his arrival. As I am driving I come up to the light and there are cops everywhere and we can't go anywhere. I am mildly annoyed as I assume that this is due to an accident.. a moment later I realize that this is because the president was going to drive by... so I get off the phone with my dad and out of the car. Since all traffic is stopped I walked down the street much closer so that I could see the limo and the crazy entourage go by. As I talk to some of the other people waiting for him to arrive we are all pretty excited to get to see this.

Then the first motorcycle cop goes past and we all put our phone up... I tried to snap a few pics and realized that I would have another crappy photo like Air Force One so I just took a video. It was really neat to see the POTUS drive past. I couldn't see anything but the limo but it was still cool.

As I continued down the back road home I passed protestors... I was a little confused by their location but who knows what they are thinking. Originally I thought it might have been some sort of gun control protest, this is Texas and we love our guns so that would make sense. It turns out it was some sort of environmental protest, I was a little weirded out as I sat at the front of the light trying to take pictures of this so you could see it while some creepy girl that looked like Wednesday looked on. So random.

Protesting something about oil

More protestors... 

I will readily admit that I am a republican (yes shocking I know) but I was thrilled to get a chance to see the president. It was like the Olympics and how everyone loves their country, I was so pumped up to be an American that day. I am still pretty jazzed about it. So much fun and what a random trip home from work after a failed experiment. I hope you enjoyed seeing the POTUS from my vantage point.
