That was really cool! I felt like I was there! This really is a treat for those of us who couldn't make it. Thank you so so so much Grisel. Now at least I have some memories around what was happening over there, even if they are not mine, they were seen through the eyes of two of my favorite people in the world!!! That gives me ownership, at least just a little bit. ;) <BR/><BR/>Love you guys,<BR/>Bobby DeJesusAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15626592.post-75270858900849745112009-01-24T18:26:00.000-05:002009-01-24T18:26:00.000-05:00I knew I'd leave something out.

I loved the clean close shave moment and felt a little bad that I was invading boy territory, but happy to see my honey get all cleaned up. He looked fine! Still does. Always will.<BR/><BR/>And I believe Vincent meant "friendly and charming" but given the Obama prices, "charging" wasn't too far off.Griselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18335613582709575850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15626592.post-87040066561730526182009-01-24T18:22:00.000-05:002009-01-24T18:22:00.000-05:00Grisel,You did a fabulous job charting our Inaugur...Grisel,<BR/><BR/>You did a fabulous job charting our Inauguration adventure. You got everything in except...<BR/><BR/>My famous shave. Immediately after leaving the Bohemian Caverns following Obama's speech, we went a half block down the street to a very local barbershop. The barber and his two friends were very friendly and charging. One of the men was telling us about the legendary Ben's Chili Bowl. He asked us if we went, and wetold him we weren't about to wait 2 hours for a bowl of chili, no matter how good it tastes. He said that wasn't the problem. The real problem, he said, is that you give them a 20 dollar bill and you only get 4 dollars back. Now that's just a sin.<BR/><BR/>The barber, who has had the place for almost fifty years, showed me a thing or two about shaving my head and face. We joked with him and his two friends some more, mostly about the prices of things during the inauguration. The barber's one friend coined a term, saying they were charging "Obama prices." We shared DC, Chicago, and NY stories, and then I paid for the shave... 19 dollars! I guess he too, was charging "Obama prices." But the experience and the company was well worth it. <BR/><BR/>Then we head back up to U Street, where we stopped in Dekka...Torohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00967882593319117204noreply@blogger.com
