I was having seriously camera envy. I watch these type events for the cameras.

I started naming lens while watching the coverage. My employees thought I was nuts.

I was amazed by the number of people behind the dais with cameras. That space is reserved for dignitaries, VIPs, etc. Yet they were just ripping away with the point and shoots.

Very dignified. :)

They kind of looked like the curtains that Julie Andrews took off the wall and made clothes for the von Trapp children in the "Sound of Music." :p

#1: LMAO!!!!
#2: LoL Perhaps the designer thought that if wearing curtains was good enough for Scarlet Ohara, surely it would be good enough for the First Lady. :D
#3: Not only is she a hugger, she is also totally fierce: I totally give her props on walking in the parade in almost-stiletto heeled boots, and not one time showing any sign of doing a stiletto-heeled induced face-plant. But then again, perhaps her hugs were actually disguised stumbles. :)
#4: yep yep... and thank god it was just a cane in his hand, and not a rifle. :)
#5: BOOYAH!!!!
