Bush Memories...

Living in DC, I've been lucky to see President Bush up close and personal a few times. And, by up close and personal, I mean in the same room, breathing the same air, usually with at least 1000 other people :) Since the countdown is on to his final day as President, I thought this was the perfect time to recount my Bush memories...and pay a little tribute to a man that I respect and thank for serving our country. He wasn't perfect...but I do believe he did what he thought was best for the American people.


Up Close 2006...The President's Dinner.


I was a young DC intern and this was one of my first "holy crap, I'm not in Kansas anymore" moments....and probably the only well rounded meal I ate the entire summer.


Up Close 2007...Memorial Day Address
Remembering the brave men that fight for freedom!


Up Close 2008...Marine One Takeoff
I may or may not have screamed like a school girl when the President walked out...and he may or may not have looked at me and waved.

Goodbye President Bush...and thank you for your 8 years of service.
