The Opportunity of a Lifetime!

Ok well last night, Michael and I had the opportunity of a lifetime. Our very own nominee for Vice President, Sarah Palin, visited in Grand Junction. It was incredible! We arrived about 4:30 and it took awhile to get into the stadium where she would be speaking. We were trying to find seats and there were none. Michael finally found a section that we could go sit at but they said it was for military VIP only. I asked him if a sister and brother in law counted and he said yes but only if they were there. I told him that he wasnt there because he was in Iraq and the guy said, "Ok go on in!" It was funny. Ok so I have some pictures. I will try to label them as I go along but it never turns out right on the post so bear with me. Some are also really blurry but after a few pics I discovered that the lense was dirty. So I cleaned it and viola! A clearer picture! Enjoy! Ok this first pic is the stadium right after we got seated. Here is the flag.
This is the stage area where Palin would give her speech. Notice the walkway? That is where she will come out and walk down. Ok now here is where the good pics start. The one on the far left (unless the post doesnt post them right) is just the stadium all lit up. If you should zoom in you may be able to see her. The one in the middle you can definitely see Sarah Palin. And of course on the right you can see her as well. I believe the gentleman on the right of the stage in the pic on the right is Todd Palin and the little gal also wearing red is their daughter, Willow. The little sister, Piper is up there as well.


Ok this one is kinda dark but you can see Gov. Palin a little bit better.
After her speech which was EXCELLENT! by the way, Michael and I headed down to the infield where Gov. Palin was signing the Country First signs. Unfortunatly we didnt get an autograph, but we did get several good pics.
I still cant believe that she was really in Grand Junction and I got to see her with my own two eyes.About a month or so ago, Senator obama bin laden was in town and even though I think is a socialistic you know what, you have to admit that it still was a once in a lifetime opportunity although in his case it would have been a waste of time.


Well here she is waving goodbye. Her daughter, Willow, is to the left there and she looks just like her mom.

I love this picture and I would love to know where I can get one of those bumper stickers!

I have more pictures but I will have to post them later. I also got a couple of video clips. Thats right! I said video! Ok well I had better go. I will update you all later!
