But I was driving south on I-29 when his motorcade came wizzing north on I-29 on their way to the airport.

It's fun to see all the pomp and circumstance. All the motorcycle police come first with their lights flashing. And then more police cars. And then the black SUV with the American flags flying. And they were followed by a bunch of white limos. And then there was an ambulance at the end. I-29 North was backed up for miles.

It was fun to see.

And I would love to meet him myself.
