Thank you Mrs. Parks

We waited four hours in line to see Mrs. Parks' body while it lied in state at the Capitol Building in DC.

I underestimated the wait by seven hours at LEAST. We left at midnight...and would have had to stay until 7am to view the body (maybe). While Mrs. Parks had no biological children it was clear that many of us considered her more than family.

Same here. We (I) thought it was all day viewing on Sunday when it didn't start until around 7:30PM.

Not good especially when one of us is sick.

Side note: my biz travel should be ending next week. After that, a happy hour or something will be easy to set up.
