I stood in the rain with my family and watched the torch come down Eastern parkway in Louisville, Kentucky. It was preceded by an annoying coca cola sponsor truck.
They handed the torch off to some local high school track athlete right in front of us. It was dark, wet, and only a handful of people were there, and quite unexpectedly my wife and I both started crying. I don't know where that came from, probably post 9/11 baggage or something. It was cool, despite itself.
