President Obama is scheduled to speak at the SXSW conference today here in Austin. SXSW is always a major traffic fiasco, and when you add a presidential motorcade to the mix, it’s going to be nuts. The mayor has asked downtown businesses to let people work from home today, and the school district closed 17 schools (I can’t for the life of me figure out why). AF1 is scheduled to land about 1:00, but I’m not going south of town to see it. I may never make it back. With luck, though, it will fly right over my house, since I managed to buy a home right under the approach for AUS. I assure you that was unintentional.


DISCUSSION (10)

He came to Omaha a while back. Motorcade did block traffic, but it was awesome.

He was in my neck of the woods about a year ago. I had an eye appt that afternoon and had to drive right by where he was speaking. They had highway on/off ramps shut down and people that looked like they wanted to kill me posted about every 50 feet.

On the plus side, I got to see the the C-32 since our little regional airport is a bit small for the VC-25.

Right, but now there’s a reason. So at least the dogs won’t judge me.

Dogs never judge. That’s why they’re man’s best friend.
