Here we are very early in the morning sitting on our blankets out by the Lincoln Memorial awaiting the start of Restoration Honor with Glenn Beck! Sarah Palin is too be here and I am not sure who else will be here! There are thousands of people here already! It is truly amazing to see the Lincoln Memorisl lit up! Looking to our left there is the WWII Mermorial with the Washington Memorial and behind that the Capitol Building! it truly is beautiful! today is about faith, hope, and charity!
The days was certainly different than what had been portrayed in the mainstream media! It was a fantastic opportunity to have at least a half a million people gathered in one place with the desire to have God brought back into our daily lives and to honor those that give...many against amazing odds. There was the 40 day challenge that some people participated in and there was another 40 day challenge that was encouraged at 8/28.
It was a peaceful day, and there were not outburts, no violence, and NO LITTER when we left. People were nice to one another, not to say that some people were irritating, and less honorable people could have made the situation bad, but it didn't happen.
We walked back and Sue was gutsy enough to get us a taxi that we shared with a lady and gentleman and quess where they were from???? Fort Myers...small world, he was in his 80's and wanted to attend and they drove all the way up!!!
Sleep was in order for the afternoon followed by a late dinner.
