yikes! I know it's been a crazy huge disturbance to NY/DC/Philly & they were saying this is one of the biggest thigns the secret service has ever coordinated.

Let's cross our fingers that nothing bad happens & that some actual good (people's shift in priorities & and political agendas) will come from his visit.

Don't get your hopes up. The World Meeting of Families officially opened in Philly yesterday, with a speech about the value of good Christian families, and the evils of abortion and same-sex marriage.

The Pope was speaking at the cathedral "that is not part of the university because we are not a religious institution" and as an alum and a Catholic it would have been amazing for DH to be able to attend. (His grandfather, who recently passed, was a graduate the year the schools - university and law - merged, but he was Methodist so no big deal, right?) As a non-Catholic, I love this Pope and would have been privileged to see him speak.

Good luck today. Post tonight (or tomorrow after you recover) to let us know you survived and how it went.
