That's Jill, Biden's wife on his left in the above picture. Since I'm new to Delaware from over 36 years in New Jersey I knew nothing about Return Day.  My postal carrier tipped me off.  She even said Biden might show up. Well, today I really had to push myself to go as it was raining before I left the house. I've spent hours waiting for pictures before but this was a real test.  I even said to myself, "Don't be a punk". I spent the next 5 hours in off and on drizzling rain.  Security was tight as there were long lines to get into the circle where the event was to take place. I went through security twice. Rumours were that Obama would be there too.  Yeah, right!  With all the security(little men and women dressed in black on rooftops) I expected Biden to be in a bullit-proof  car. What a surprise to see him in the first carriage, hanging out of it and waving to people. In Delaware, Joe's our man.
