The wife took our two youngest Grandsons to the official opening of the Griffin Bike Park today.
https://griffinbikepark.com/ My youngest son and his wife were both involved in the opening so we kept the kids for them. I'd planned on going also but the onset of a cold convinced me to say at home.
Governor Pence and his wife along with their SS agents were there. The wife made a video recording of his speech for me from the front row. He speaks well and he and his wife brought their mountain bikes and did some riding while they were there. The SS also brought bikes to join in the ride of course.
The wife said my 4 year-old Grandson Ryder saying "can we ride now?" after the end of the speeches was audible and amusing to all who were close. There was no mention of politics in Pence's speech. Just lot's of respect for the family who created this amazing bike park in honor of their son who lost his life serving our country. Pence said that although he can not comprehend the grief this family has had to deal with he does understand their pride since he has a son who is a marine.
I think it's important to remember and realize most of these people in the news are real, caring people (Hillary is the exception) who have beliefs they hold deeply and a great respect and love for our country and it's people. Pence is a good guy who took time to personally respond to an E mail I sent him a few years ago. I truly hope he is our next VP of the United States.
