YES WE CAN!


We were fortunate enough this weekend to attend a rally for Barack Obama. I know I have shared this video with many of you already but if you haven't seen it, it is wonderful. Check it out and imagine us in a room full of 8000 other Montanans with this playing overhead. It gave me chills and filled the room with an excitement that our local paper likened to a rock concert as opposed to a political rally. We had a great time and felt lucky to get in. Tickets were free but required and didn't guarantee you a seat. As you can see from the size of the very small section of the line that I posted, we didn't know that we would get in. We did, after standing in line for over an hour, and it was worth the wait. When it was over, Roo decided he needed to find "Arack Obama" and shake his hand. We weren't successful but another Montanan body surfed their baby girl over the crowd with success! Lucky girl.

If you are interested in seeing more video of Obama in Montana, there are lots of great videos on You Tube.
