that all the great inaugural picture threads have vanished like yesterday's donuts.

Just the views of the crowd took my breath away.

I was glad to hear that the day went off with no security hitches. Is it true that there were zero arrests?

Amazing.

7. The police were really easy going.

They were there for homeland security purposes and crowd control, they didn't do anything that normally leads to people being confrontational and getting arrested. I still don't believe they let people walk across the reflecting pool, I wish I had gotten pictures of that because I am quite convinced it is something I will never again see in my lifetime....Capitol Police are not normally anywhere near that laid back.
