Slick Willie


There are many things on my BUCKET list that I have yet to do, but yesterday I got to cross one thing off. "yeah me".

I picked Nicolette up at school, and off we went to Ft.Pierce, (for those who are not from Florida, Ft.Pierce is the next town up from me). It's not the nicest, or safest town for that matter, but this area is great. Many little shops and the Saturday's farmers market is always nice. But yesterday what calls us to go was none other than former President "William Jefferson Clinton". Did i say "yeah me"

He was speaking at a rally for the Florida Democrat's, and we gladly stood in 90 degree weather waiting to get a chance to see him. Nicolette and I got there at noon. Packed a picnic lunch and bathing suits and planted ourselves in line and had a blast. Bill, as I like to call him, wasn't to speak until 2:45 so we had a lot of time to relax and eat.

The crowds started building and at one point I looked behind me at the line and there had to be several hundred people behind us. When they opened the gates, we headed in and we were in the second row!!!! How fantastic this was. Truly something so insignificant to some, but so memorable for me.

One last time " Yeah Me "
