When I started out on this journey, I imagined going from event to event on my perfectly planned schedule and ending each day with a full blog report. Unfortunately, it’s been much more difficult to do that then I thought. So, I will do my best to catch up here.
You may have followed it on television tonight; it was quite a show! We did what we came to the convention to do – nominate Barack Obama as our Democratic Nominee for President.
Delegates participated in a day of service today at several different locations throughout the city. I met Watki, a Denver resident and volunteer, and walked to the p://www.denverrescuemission.org/ Their volunteer coordinator gave us a tour and then put us to work preparing a meal for the daily guests. I haven’t really done any volunteer work since I moved to Boulder a couple of years ago, and this experience reminded me both how rewarding and important it can be. It also was a great example of what Obama will bring to our country. Obama cannot put our country back on track by himself; he will need our help.
I attended a luncheon for delegations that met the Green Delegate Challenge. I was hoping to interact with Governor Ritter, but had to leave first. However, I did meet up with a couple of interesting fellows from the Washington Delegation.
