Time for Change

Sunday afternoon at the CSU Oval:
video
We were there by 10:30 am and joined our group of V.I.P. ushers.
Jeanne was posted at the blue ticket collection area left of the stage and I was the crossing guard between the left stage entry and the bomb squad. ( Actually, I was at the cut-off area between the V.I.P. entry and the main roadway. I got to see who was coming and going!)
The AP estimated that there were more than 45,000 people in attendance.  I recorded some of Barack's speech with my Zoom H2 Handy Recorder and used it in the video.
Jeanne was able to leave her post and get close to the center stage, but I stayed near a speaker tower to get the audio.  I stood on top of an electric generator trailer to get a quick glimpse of Barack doing an interview after his speech.
