My good friend and former roommate from BYU, Shelly, has some good connections and was able to get us tickets to a luncheon with Mitt Romney. We went up to meet him and have our picture taken before it started. I was too nervous to say anything more than hello and ask if we could get a picture.
During the luncheon, Mitt gave a speech. He said that although we have challenges, he has hope for the future of America. He believes that the people of America are strong and that we will rise above our problems.
I sure hope so. It seems like everytime I turn around, there is one more thing to worry about: H1N1, Afghanistan, the economy, terrorists, healthcare, the dollar weakening, and the list goes on.
I have a lot of respect for Mitt Romey, and it was an honor to attend a luncheon with him as the speaker. It would have been neat to meet his lovely wife too, but I didn't see her there.
