Inauguration Viewing and Photos, January 2013

This Inauguration Day 2013 I had a bird’s-eye view spot from which to watch President Obama’s swearing in ceremony – the chambers of U.S. District Court Judge Emmet G. Sullivan. (Judge Sullivan was appointed by President Ronald Reagan to serve as an Associate Judge of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia in the 80s and later “promoted” to the District Court; he shared judicial chambers with “my” judge, the Honorable Robert I. Richter back then.) As you can see from the photos, Judge Sullivan's office is well-located for inauguration viewing. All the same, while we were close enough to realize that the TV coverage of the ceremony was on a 10-second or so delay, watching the events on TV, rather than peering at them through binoculars, proved to be the way to go! I hope you enjoy this array of photos from the day.

Guide to Photos: 1. Legislator Eva Marie Carney posing outside Ford's Theatre, on her way to the Inauguration. 2. The U.S. Capitol, seen from Judge Sullivan's office. 3. Outside the U.S. District Courthouse, Washington D.C. 4. Brunch celebrating the inaugural ceremony, hosted by Judge Sullivan's family and friends. 5. Crowds continuing to swell just ahead of the swearing in ceremony. 6. Televised broadcast of President Obama's inauguration speech. 7.Anarchist protesters organized themselves (not!) during the day's events. 8. Walking vegetables conveyed PETA's message to the crowds.
