Breakfast with Obama

For the six or seven of us left in Sonoma County who are not in Washington, D.C. this week but don't want to watch the inauguration Tuesday alone, here's an invitiation: Go to the Raven Performing Arts Center in Healdsburg.

The operators of the Raven tell me they've decided to open up the theater for free to those in the community who want to come in and watch the events. KRCB will be hosting a live feed.

The theater will open at 8 a.m. Obama will take the oath of office at 9 a.m.

Sounds like a fun way to take part in this historic event - without having to brave the crowds and the weather in D.C. 

The high in Washington on Tuesday is supposed to be 32. The temperature inside the Raven should be at least twice that.

But don't expect to be able to buy popcorn. The concession stand will be closed. But you're invited to bring your own coffee and bagel. Should be a warm communty gathering.
