Peggy Dyer Photography presents; Inauguration Day Coverage, Pearl St Mall, Boulder Colorado

I decided to head to the Boulder Theater to watch the Inauguration and all the festivities, but it was all sold out. Throngs of school kids wearing backpacks, people of all ages wearing shirts, buttons and huge smiles on their faces. undaunted, I stayed my course. I knew something monumental was happening, and I wanted to capture all the energy of the moment.

I noticed people headed into the Lazy Dog. I got my name on the list and they said it was community seating, every seat in the house would be full. I got one of the last seats in the bar, and just held my camera watching history unfold before my lens.

Once all the pomp and circumstance began, an absolute hush fell over the crowd. Silence, except for the words coming from the screen, everyone was riveted.

The music on this slideshow is from Dominic Lanza, a Boulder Musician, Dominic was playing patriotic tunes on the coronet just outside the Lazy Dog.
