If I could be a VIP and share the moment with friends, I would love to go. Even to be in the huge mass of people, it would be amazing to be in the thick of it.

My cousin married a federal judge so they are invited to each inauguration. I asked her about going. She was hesitating due to the cost. Oh, to be part of history!!! To be there.

Long story short, her DH is taking his eldest son.

They get to have a picture taken with the president and it is not even a cardboard cut-out!
