Off to Rocky Mountain National Park

We decided to take a half-day trip to the Rockies today... to gather strength & clarity before the Big Show unfolds today at Invesco at Mile High.
To be honest, I am - and I think the others are as well - pretty excited about today's upcoming events. I got a taste of Sen. Obama when I watched his speech in front of Berlin's Siegersaeule a couple of weeks ago with the Burns fellows at the German Marshall Fund.

Adrienne and Cem - Burns alumna & husband, who talked to us on Tuesday - told us that they were in Berlin for Sen. Obama's speech, along with 200,000 other Germans. That number is pretty amazing, and I am getting pretty hyped up for tonight.

But first, off to the Rockies...

P.S. I left my charger for my cell phone at the foreign press center tent last night, and my battery is pretty dead - email/blogging will have to be my sole means of communications on this last & final day in Denver
