I recieved a souvenir invitation to the George W. Bush inaugural, but alas because of limitation of funds and travel abilities, I won't be attending. I have been to Washington D.C. or driven through 29 times in my life including two inaugurals. The inaugural involves spending a lot of time standing outside in the cold, and walking through large buildings. Althogh I am capable during the inaugural Washington D.C. is more expensive, and quite frankly after attending Ronald Reagan's first inaugural and George H. W. Bush's inaugural, I guess I have had more than my fare share of Washington visits. Well have a good evening, I guess I will watch a video. CIO
