Photos from Obama - Gore rally in Detroit
Here's a sampling from the whole album. Some of these are pretty fuzzy. It was really hard to get a shot when no one was moving around. Here's a link to the whole album, too: http://share.shutterfly.com/action/pictures?a=67b0de21b347f472c41f&sid=0AcNXLFi0ct2Lt4

I have a big stuffed polar bear and today while I was watching the recording of Gore's speech, I glanced at my polar bear situated by the TV and just knew I had to take some shots of the polar bear "watching" Al Gore on TV.

2. You probably had a better view on TV than I had at the Joe
But I'm glad I was there! I was so excited when I found out I was going to be in the same building as the Goreacle!

4. I'm a "people watcher"
.... and I'd probably have been in a transcendent state. Particularly with the kids. It would've been a "contact high."
:silly:

3. Polar bear knows . . .
Al Gore is very concerned about global warming. ;)

Great pics! I'm so jealous you were there!

5. I was in heaven!
I sure didn't expect a two-fer when I left work to go down there.

9. You're welcome, catgirl
I wish they were sharper, but it was pretty difficult from where I was standing and using my zoom.

13. You're welcome, BunBun
My only regret is that I didn't get to shake Al's hand. I got to shake Barack's two weeks ago at the town hall I went to, but I wasn't close enough here. If I hadn't volunteered I might have been able to get closer, depending on when I would have gotten into the arena.

16. Hey, Olney!
How are you doing? I'd love to figure out how to get that one to him somehow. I thought it was a hoot.

:)


I'm doing very well, thanks! Glad the primaries are over......

20. Thanks, Julie
Wish you could have been there. I'm sure Barack will make it up your way at some point, but without Gore, unfortunately.
