After the convention yesterday, a few too many beverages afterward, and the 10K this morning, I'm only now getting to posting my photos and sharing my experience.
My fiance and I picked up a couple of other delegates from precinct 135 in Austin, and headed out to the Travis County Democratic Convention. After waiting in line for about 20 minutes or so, we were off to wait in line. After another 40 minutes, we were inside!
Pictures below.
Around 8am. The arena is just beginning to fill in.
Some of the wait on the outside. This is the south entrance. The north entrance seemed to have longer lines.

Kirk Watson remembers why he supports Barack.
Terry McAuliffe is distracted by a piece of concession stand chicken.
My camera decided to call it quits before I did, and I didn't get any pictures of us caucusing. I managed to solve the problem kath25 had, and was able to white-balance my photos there. However, I adjusted the ISO setting so that I didn't have to use the flash, and ended up with grainy photos.
Most of us called it quits after our caucus, which was extremely well organized. I think next time I'd like to stay for the resolutions, but we were pretty wiped out. We finished the day at Nomad, off Cameron.
