A Historic Day in Pictures

The last time I voted in a U.S. election was back in 1992 when Bill Clinton won the presidency.  I remember that day because I had just turned 18 that year and was very excited about being able to vote ;)

I failed to vote in elections following that year because I for whatever reason I didn't feel very inspired to vote.  Until now.  In the most historic election in U.S. history, I voted because I was full of hope.  I was inspired!  For the first time in 16 years I felt that my vote would count.  I wanted to put out those good vibes.  For the first time in weeks I actually got up early (7:30 a.m. is early for me!) to go vote. 

Oh, change is all good!

To document this historic day, I took a few pictures...

It's been awhile since I've stepped into a Starbucks, but I received an email from them saying that they were giving away free cups of coffee to people who voted.  Even though I've been trying to cut down on coffee, I couldn't resist.  This Starbucks in Lemon Grove, CA was busier than usual...

Free Coffee at Starbucks On Election Day

I picked up this little "newspaper" called GOOD, a website and magazine doing good things...

It's All Good

It was a rainy day on election day...The first rainy day in San Diego in months...

And yes, I wore my "I Voted!" sticker all day...

I Voted!
