I haven't heard anyone mentioning it, but Michelle Obama is coming to Panama City Beach today, July 12 2010. Anyone going to see her or know where she will be? It says that it is an open event, but I've yet to hear the location of her speech. I wonder what she will tell us that we don't already know.

WASHINGTON -- First lady Michelle Obama will travel to Panama City Beach, Fla., on Monday to meet with members of the community and discuss the impact of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the White House announced this afternoon.
The first lady will begin her visit with a briefing by officials and local leaders. She will then speak to the Panama City Beach community at an open event in the early evening, White House officials said.

I had to stop for her motorcade to get past...lots of cops on motorcycles and squad cars but no elaborate limos...just a coupla non-descript navy vans and cars...I understand it was mostly business and tourism people she was meeting with. She did fly in to the new airport...not sure about the discount
Perhaps our TDC director can fill us in on the details.
I guess those SouthWest direct flights in from BWI are paying off....

Only a 100 "special invited folks" were invited to the "open" meeting with MS. OBAMA. I believe it was a quick visit and tour for her, as she isalso preparing to speak before the NAACP group in Kansas City Monday evening.

Most of which were business owners.

Michelle tells people to vacation in Florida. She and the Pres. take off to Maine. Yay. :roll:
