Our biggest thrill was going to the rally last Sunday when Barak Obama spoke at the University in Ft. Collins. We volunteered to help with the event, an all-day job! Unfortunately, we didn't get assigned to the VIP post, so we were among the masses (45,000-50,000 people) trying to peek through a lot of bodies to find Barak on the stage. At least we were able to get in and catch glimpses of him, unlike thousands of others who were turned away or gave up when the saw the mile+ line waiting to get in. But it was thrilling to be in that energetic crowd. When he was introduced as the next president of the United States, the crowd went wild! So did we!
