I think the weirdest moment for me on this trip was during the fireworks.
We were sitting in Eastern Washington/Idaho listening to the country music station talk about the fireworks and play sound bites celebrating America. This is appearantly the BIG station in those parts.
The celebration started with Obama's speech.
I was shocked.
And then, the next day we went to Wallmart. They were selling posters of the Rolling Stone cover with Obama on it.
Shocked and surprised. Lewiston/Clarkston is yeehaw hick country.
We passed by gun yard sales. Yes, you read that right. There was a yard sale selling firearms.
I counted more mullets and men without shirts than I thought possible.
