So, this is quite the inconvenience. It's awesome that Obama is down here checking out the parks. However, sontek and I were planning on volunteering tomorrow at Fort Pickens and go diving after.

But, that's not happening now that Obama is in town. Hopefully we can go tomorrow, but it's a bummer that things will be completely closed for a day.

yeah... I wondered how much it cost the taxpayer for his visit.

and I don't just mean the federal goverment. I mean the local goverments also as I saw pictures of tons of local police and also lots of concrete barriers put up by local public works.

they were even using school buses to block off streets.

That will just be added to the trillions our great great grandchildren will be paying. I don't think obama has ever lived on a budget much less made a budget........

People complain that he's down here...


You better believe the same people would be complaining if he didn't come down here

Photo ops are always an inconvenience
