Getaway

On Saturday Marc and I set sail on a cruise down to Mexico! This is our boat, but there won't be any snow behind it (DC has seen some flurries)... Stay posted for some pics.

Maybe you'll be able to see me on the webcam!

Favorite election images

What a night on Election Night! There were so many emotions leading up to it, and seeing crowds flooding into the streets in some major cities topped it off for me. I was amazed by the crowd pressing into the park in Chicago to see President-elect Obama. I thought it was great that he did not walk onto the stage alone, but hand-in-hand with his family. Seeing them on stage was when the magnitude of reality set in for me...what a strong and inspiring First Family! Our future is once again hope, no longer fear and incompetence.
