I know a lot of people don't have the time to check out the
White House's photostream at Flickr so I thought I'd put one together for everyone.
If you see an image you really like I encourage you to click through using the links I've provided under each image and view that photo in a larger format (in cases where there are no links that is because the White House has not yet uploaded that image to Flickr). Also, you can order prints through Flickr or download full sized files to print at home if you'd like. I've printed quite a few over the years to hang in my office here at school.
Please feel free to add pictures from June in the comments that I missed and you'd like to share with everyone.
