As requested here are the Pics of Marine One Dropping off President Bush Thanks giving of 2006. Now what you can’t see is there are three Helicopters two of which have already left the third one in the pic above. The Helicopter above was about twenty minutes at the White house and then returned…Probably going to Andrews Air Force Base! Now in the Pic below are the helicopters (there were three but we couldn’t get them all in the shot) flying to the White House. The other two are slightly behind this one and this is the one that was at the white house. Off to the right of the scree you would if you were standing in that spot by the Washington Monument would see a huge building. I think it is a part of the Smithsonian. When the helicopters showed up so did a sniper on the roof of that building. It was amazing! And as soon as the helicopters were gone so was he. We would have never noticed him had I not turned around at the right time!
This is an actual real to life Photograph of the capital building at sunset. It was a warm 60 degree Saturday evening. To be specific the Saturday after Thanksgiving this past year! We got another cool picture but that was of Marine one bring President Bush back from Thanksgiving Holiday. That was really cool and kind of an interesting story too!
This picture has nothing to do with the rest of the post!
Ok so My tackle for today is simple. I am to just plain and simple tackle life….original huh? Well let’s explain why this is such a big feat for this week! Friday night we had a Welcome home party for Hubby’s brother and wife who will be the co-youth leader’s with us! So Tornado and lady bug were unfortunately out to 11 pm! Then Saturday morning at 10:30 am we left (without kids in tow) to drive 4 hours to see a friend of our Master’s thesis be presented in concert form. He is in a music composition Master’s program. He is a music genius and we have been waiting for him to complete this for 2 or 3 years. That was when he was supposed to complete it but had woman trouble! (ROTFL) Anyway so we visited with some other friends while we waited for 7 pm! The concert was fantastic! He did things with a piano I never knew could be done! We then went back with our other friends! We had donuts and coffee! We had a great time and finally left around eleven! About 25 minutes into the driving two things happened! We hit some of the worst fog we have ever driven through and I got sick! The fog caused us to drive at a whopping 25 miles an hour and the sickness caused two pit stops (the sickness c was caused by the caffeine in the coffee- I had no idea I was putting into my body 4 times the normal amount of caffeine) So in having the first pit stop resulted in us missing an exit and swerving a slight bit and being pulled over for drunk driving! Yes drunk driving. The police officer was so nice! So despite all of this we had a great trip home which took a whopping 6 hours instead of four> You got it we got home at 5. Got in bed at 5:30 and up at 7. We had church. You guessed and remember my husband is a pastor so he was teaching Sunday school. Praise the Lord the kids weren’t along for the ride. So needless to say. My tackle this week is Life. I am still quite tired today after two nights of sleep. they weren’t the greast but it was better than we had on Saturday/Sunday–oh yeah and we still lost an hour cuz of daylight saving time!
