It’s January 20, 2010. The inauguration of Pres. Barack Obama took place 1 year ago today. Reflecting on that day I notice that it was much colder last year weather wise but it is much colder this year politically. I also remember the excitement and the effort people went to in order to attend the ceremony. It was a great day for America.
Crowd listens as President Obama delivers his inauguration address
Crowd listens as Aretha Franklin sings
People arrived early at Metro stations
People crowded into metro to get to the inauguration
It was COLD out there! People stood out in the cold for hours
Departing was just as difficult as arriving.
