Just as hubby and I were disembarking (detrain as the conductor announces) our commuter train, Jill Biden (the wife of our vice president—Joe Biden) was boarding her train. There were a slew of secret service agents, police, and K-9s. The car she came in with was parked at the end tail of her Acela train. She was probably going home to Delaware.

We were hurried out of the station fast and the gates were closed. No one was allowed to board the trains. They had to wait for her to go in first. Strange life she now has.

Here's a picture of the Acela. I would love to ride it one day:

Yes, but I didn't like having my life interrupted because of her. Sometimes, we are detained just outside of Union Station for 25 minutes while the VIP is boarding a train.

Neato.

I guess she's working at one of the local community colleges here now. I forget...I think it is NoVA CC?

I believe that it is at NoVa CC.

A brush with greatness! (Six degrees of Joe Biden!)

Inconvenient, though.

Ah, the perks of living near DC.

Is the entire length of the Acela hers? What does she need all that space for? :-/

No, she probably has one car for her and her entourage.
