Awesome D.C. Quotes

So being together with the same people for seven days, you hear things that make an impression and are hilarious! These are some memorable quotes from our trip to D.C.

The night we flew in to D.C. it was dark and as we approached the hotel Mike Marsch pointed out that the Pentagon was on our right.

"OMG! I'M SEEING THE PENTAGON!!!"

That's what Melissa Gilstrap said when she first said when she saw it. That was the motto for the odd bus whenever we saw the pentagon.
We also had an awesome bus driver for the odd bus. His name was Mr. D. Some of the days he stayed at the bus right through lunch. We felt really bad about this, but when we asked him about it his saying was always the same.

"It's all good."

The Orioles game proved to be no exception to the cool quotes. There was a crazy fan behind our section that cam up to us, after we had been cheering a while, and told us that...

"You own this section! Don't let anyone tell you different!"

This made out group, Tanner, Amber, Alex, and I, laugh. But we where also crazy and excited at the game. I even stood up between innings and attempted to get the crowd to spell ORIOLES with me. It didn't go as well as planned.


GIVE ME AN 'O'
"O!"
GIVE ME AN 'R'
"R!"
GIVE ME AN 'I'
"I!"
GIVE ME AN 'O'
"O!"
GIVE ME AN 'R'
"R!"
"No it's and L!"
GIVE ME AN 'L'
"L!"
GIVE ME AN 'E'
"E!"
WHAT DOES THAT SPELL!?!?!?
"ORIORLES!!!!"

So what if I can't spell a bird no one has ever heard of. It was still an awesome experience. Thanks again to my home Cooperative, Cuivre River Electric Co-op, the Chaperones, and everyone else that made this trip possible.
