When she read about the port-a-potty situation, it was the final straw since she was going to be taking two children with her. She didn't think they could handle the lack of available restrooms. The other two who are going have family in or near DC and are staying with them. They are very excited! We are trying to get them to wear something that we could easily identify.. like a rainbow wig or something, but they aren't going for it.
5 million people? I don't think there is any way to 'distinguish' anyonein that crowd...it will be like a virtual Where's Waldo if you are trying to find someone there...hehehe!!

Hehe.. yeah, we know. We just like teasing about it.

The weather report for Tuesday is high of 37 and sunny in the afternoon. That sounds like heaven to me. Our predicted HIGH for Friday is 6. DC will be 30 degrees warmer than that! My co-workers will be wearing shorts

Believe me when I say I am already trying to map a strategy to get down there early enough to get a good spot.

Tell them to make a plan to stay toegther and have a strategy in case they get separated including loss of phone coverage.

In the words of Karen Walker, "It's like trying to find a needle in a gay stack".

Maybe you should wear a mortar board with a rainbow wig.
