Where are you during this Historic Moment!??!!?




HAPPY ELECTION DAY!

How exciting is this: we might make history tonight!

I'm sure you know what I'm talking about....

No matter who you're going for, this election year was a record-breaker in so many ways, and no matter the outcome, we still make history in that Barack Obama was the first African-American to be nominated for president! That in itself is very exciting from a historic standpoint and something I think many Americans and Ohians would say it has been a long-time comin'!

So my question (and this post) is short and sweet:

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY!?!?! November 4, 2008

Where are you?
Who are you?
What are you doing?
What are you wearing?
What phase of your life are you in?
What does this day mean to you?
What are you thinking right now?

Document this moment through video, journal entries, blogs, photos, clippings, scrapbooks etc. because this is real and for many of us, this is one of the most significant and happy historic moments of our lives thus far. Our parents and grandparents had a number of huge milestones, both good and bad...we've had more negative ones it seems, than positive...so this will be a great, exciting, wanted, necessary and happy moment for many. Cherish this!

(A quick side-note, when Barack and his family were here in Columbus on Sunday, November 2nd, there was a crowd of over 60,000 people! That is the largest rally in the history of the city! Another record broken)
