Obama comes to town!





Here are a couple of other photos of Obama's visit to Wilbur yesterday....right here in Lititz, can you believe that?! Also there's a photo of Ellen from Saturday when we waited to get tickets for his speech at Stevens. Can you tell how cold it was? And lucky Ellen, we didn't get tickets then, but she knows someone in High Places and got one later. Can't wait to hear about the speech.


One of the coolest things about our trip down to Wilbur yesterday was that Anna and I...and Chris too I think....were talking to the check-out woman there who has always been there at Wilburs. This woman is so cute and so nice....a little old white-haired woman who's so pleasant that she always puts a little up-tick in your day when you cross her path. I love that! She was saying she was so excited that Obama was coming, but also she was so excited that because she had never imagined that a woman or a black man could be running for president during her lifetime.....and here it was. Exciting! Hooray for her.....and hooray for us all too!

This opportunity was too awesome for you all. I hope the Wilbur Buds enhance his campaign energy...he must be exhausted!
