Inauguration Buzz at O'Hare

As I checked my bag this morning, the obligatory question was asked of me.

"What's your final destination?"

Like thousands of others today at O'Hare and millions of others at airports all across the country, I felt incredibly lucky to answer "D.C."

D.C.-bound travelers are everywhere. The fifteen-year-old girl who said good bye to her dad at curbside check-in.The group of students sitting next to us at the gate. They'll be attending the Presidential Youth Inaugural Conference.

Our fourth and final group member has arrived, and we'll be off to our first stop, Cleveland, very soon.
