The Prez Comes to Town

We were very excited to learn that President Obama was going to be in Rio Rancho for a Town Hall Meeting in May. Stu & I tried to get tickets to the event, but we weren't successful. As an alternative, we were able to hike to the top of the overlook in our neighborhood & watch the presidential motorcade as it arrived at Rio Rancho High School. A very neat thing to see & share with the boys!
