I voted
We interrupt the wedding recap for the following announcement...
I voted.
I don't know about your voting experience, but mine was quite different this year. Not only was there a line at 7am (a first at my polling place), but everyone brought their dogs, kids and nannies along. And, I'm not just talking about bringing the baby along, 'cause, well, you can't leave the baby at home. I mean, people brought all of their dogs, all of their kids (from 0 to 16 years old) and a few even brought along the nannies. This wasn't just voting, it was an occasion, a learning experience. People had cameras and were taking pictures of each other.
I've been voting at this location for years (I adore my voting garage) and its never been like this. Typically I'm the only person there with a camera and usually people are giving me dirty looks even though I'm taking a picture of the garage from across the street.
I admit, I'm one of the lucky ones. I only had to wait about 15 minutes and parking was easy.
But yeah, this election was different.

Yes! People brought their dogs, babies and nannies to my polling place this morning too. One family rode up in their coordinated pink and purple bicycles!
I had to wait for over an hour, but it was highly entertaining, I must say!
Very exciting at my polling place. Babies and dogs too.
