Proud to be an American
Senator McCain and Governor Palin were in Colorado Springs today. They spoke a the Jet Center (a hanger for small planes). Tickets were free, so Michael and I decided it would be fun to go and a neat experience for Mikey and Catherine....Unfortunately, Mikey and Catherine did not enjoy standing in a crowd of a bazillion or more people in the blazing hot Colorado sun any more than I did. The neatest part for me was the dedication for the Viet Nam Vets and an inside story from a fellow POW soldier about Senator McCain's POW experience.
The walk to the Jet Center.
More walking with lots more people.
Michael finally lets me take a decent picture of him.
This video is the story about John McCain in the POW camp. I was much too short and much too far away to get a video of the speaker, so I just pointed the camera at the ground, but I got the story.
