I'll be there as well.   I'll be the older guy in red.    Thinkin' about gettin' off the subway at Foggy Bottom, headin' to Constitution, and workin' my way toward the stage on 7th ST.    I plan on gettin' in the parade at some point.

https://es.pn/2sZplPc  ESPN article on Ovie. Well worth a read.

I’m at another conference this week and won’t be going.   Not sure it will top Saturday at Nats park anyway. :)

I'm sure the conference will be a barn burner.    :)

I'm gettin' up around 5 to shower, vote, etc. but I'm gonna try to make it.    I see a couple of coffees or a 5 Hour Energy in the AM.

Good infantry training and clean living.    :)    I have a few stops to make along the way.       Just hope I don't deaden the legs for 18 holes walkin' on Thursday.   Of course that wouldn't affect my game anyway.

I hope he enters with that thing up over his head like it has been since Thursday.   Except for when he takes a nap and snuggles with it, of course.    :hysterical:

Those were classic but the Paisano's "what choo want" ads take the craft and make it an art

DHS estimating between 100k and 500k people tomorrow according to a friend. I wonder if they will allow un scheduled leave for the government.

That's a lot of riff-raff.

Is Federal Triangle open?  If you silver / orange / blue in, it is half a block down 12th to the parade route.

As of now, all stations are open.   WMATA and MPD said they'll make changes as necessary  ....  entry/exit only into some stations, etc.
