Florida Goes to Washington

After braving the cold and record crowds, let me just say that this Floridian was thrilled by the experience of attending the inauguration of our 44th President. It is hard to express what is like to be amongst 2 million of your fellow Americans, packed as tight as any cargo brought into the port and as excited, hopeful and expectant as college grads waiting to receive the diploma that would mark them as the first in their family to earn a degree.

That said, the absolute highlight of the last several days was attending Florida’s Sunshine and Star Inaugural Ball and having Bob Graham ask my girlfriend and I when we were getting married.

This summer, I said.
