He waved!

It's not every day that the President comes to town, so we drove out to the main road and waited for him and his motorcade to drive through.  A little ice cream during the wait didn't hurt!

Waiting for the motorcade

 It was fun to watch all the police and troopers go by as they cleared the road.....you won't see 29 this clear until (if) it snows this winter!

We were't alone during the wait, and we met a mom and daughter from our neighborhood.  We finally pieced together that her and Car were in the same preschool class 6 years ago!

Aren't they driving the wrong way?



Here he comes!and then I stopped taking pictures....
 

I told Carter that we wouldn't actually see the man himself since the windows of the car would be darkened....but call me wrong already!  We actually saw him in the back seat and he waved! 

We can now saw we have seen a sitting US President now.  All in all, a fun little experience.  I'm glad we went.

Our prayers go out to all those in the path of Hurricane Isaac.  Stay safe.
