air force one and g-dubya visit slakis- as you may or may not know, G-Dub was in town to speak at the VFW convention at the salt palace.. he flew in at around 10:35 or so, and left around 12:55.. i had to work, so i was only able to leave on my lunch break and take pictures when he got here..

i didn't put a link at the main page so everyone would read the blog.. i nor support or oppose bush. somebody has to do his job and i can't say i would rather have John Kerry be doing it.. someone real should run for president..

here is a link to the picture gallery.. i will summarize a few of the photos here.. click photos for bigger pictures..




he was supposed to get in at about 10:45... i left work around 10:35 and found out he had arrived 10 minutes early.. here's the plane taxiing to parking at the air national guard base of the airport.



the tail of air force one can be seen here, just behind the fence.. i couldn't really get a good picture of it..




a motorcade of slc police motorcycles heads out from the airport to block traffic, in front of the prez's limos.. i am not sure exactly which route they took, but there sure were a lot of cars.. the police is seen here telling a taxi cab next to me to stop pulling closer..



the prez's limos head out on the journey to the salt palace, about 10 seconds behind all the motorcycles, proceeded and followed by quite a few suburbans and other official looking vehicles..



protestors at the salt palace, i wish i didn't have to go to work or i could have had more pictures.. work sucks..



a police detective watches me drive by as another police officer practices standing on one foot.
