Close-up 2009 Alex Fowler

Avoiding all the cold air, miles of walking and early morning wake up calls close-up to me is a memorable experience that I will never forget. Other than the inauguration and dances here at our hotel the events that I have experienced have changed my life. Today in particular we went to Mount Vernon. This was a memory to me because I got to see one of the men who created our country and helped make it what it is. I now know that there were good men back then and that they set a precedent for what our presidents today should do. Close-up is a very great experience and I loved every part of it. Good luck to Barack Obama and God Bless America.
