Greetings from Pittsboro! As some of you might know, Pat and I have made our escape from the suburban sprawl of North Atlanta and have relocated to a quirky little town in North Carolina called Pittsboro. We are about 20 miles from Chapel Hill down the infamous highway 15-501. I decided to start a blog to keep everyone up-to-date on our adventures in the "Pitt", as we fondly refer to our new haven.

OBAMA IN RALEIGH AWESOME!!!
Obama speaking to crowd of 28,000!
Pat, Emily, Jane, and Diana (sister-in-law) went to see Obama....very cold! Tons of people, we were packed in like sardines. It is unbelievable how great everyone was. Hope was alive!
Protectors everywhere to make sure nothing happened. Three people fainted near us and people were right there to help.

I was overwhelmed with pride as I stood with over 25,000 people waiting almost 2 hours to hear Obama speak. It was a mixed crowd, black, white and brown, young and old, veterans and peace children, all waiting to hear a message of hope. As we waited we got to know the people around us and all talked about the America that they hoped would come to together as one. After hearing Obama speak, I am starting to believe it can be.
