Tonight’s post is being written extra early, simply because Chelsea, myself, and Dee, our roommate, have a planned 3am wake-up call tomorrow. The Canadian Embassy is having an Inaugural tailgate party, and due to its proximity to the Capitol, we figured that it would be a great place to be a part of history.
This morning I headed off to Target to get a pair of gloves and a hat since I, being someone who would lose her head if it wasn’t attached to her head, left my gloves and hat at home. Of course, with my luck, Target was sold out. I went downstairs to Payless and Marshalls and unsurprisingly, both of those stores didn’t have any in stock. Almost giving up, on my way back to the hotel, I stopped at Macy’s and found some of the fuzziest gloves ever created.
In the afternoon, I headed over to Arlington Cemetery. It was so poignant to see the thousands of men and women who had died to protect our freedoms and the freedoms of others. My timing, for once, was perfect. I had made it up to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier just in time to see the changing of the guard. Such a moving experience is a great lead-in into the monumental events of tomorrow afternoon.
Nice move with the hat and gloves Reusch, must run in the family, I seemeed to have lost a sweater. I was lucky though, I seemed to have found it when I saw the picture of you posted with the Algerian Ambassador, nice outfit.
