Mike Lee Welcome Home (2013-11-01) I attended the Mike Lee Welcome Home Party at the Jordan River Park in South Jordan on November 2, 2012.
South Jordan Rally (2013-11-01) This shows part of the crowd at the Mike Lee welcome home rally.
Substantial Crowd (2013-11-01) I am standing a good distance from the rally. The crowd is about 50 people deep. There appears to be a few thousand people at the rally for Mike Lee.
I Like Mike Rally (2013-11-01) People at a rally for Senator Mike Lee after a harrowing legislative session.
Halloween Costume (2013-11-01) Kids were still sporting Halloween costumes on November 2. Halloween is no longer a day but a season.
I Like Mike Banner (2013-11-01) Many people took home made banners to the rally.
Liberty Rally (2013-11-01) A rally supporting Mike Lee who took a bold stand for limited government this last legislative session.
Little Doggy (2013-11-01) This little dog was not happy about all the kneecaps. Let's face it. There were just too many humans and not enough play time.
Don t Tread on Me (2013-11-01) Many attendees at the rally bore "Don't Tread on Me Flags."
Rally Crowd (2013-11-01) The crowd at the Mike Lee Rally.
Photographer s Playground (2013-11-01) A photographer was smart enough to climb on the playground equipment for photos. I thought about following suit, but the kids were playing and I would hate to disrupt their play.
Rally Amid Park Equipment (2013-11-01) A picture from behind the volleyball net.
Pavilion (2013-11-01) The rally was near this pavilion at Jordan River Park Way.
Light Press Coverage (2013-11-01) There was not much press coverage at the rally. This person has a professional quality camera. I couldn't figure out what he was filming.
Flags at a Rally (2013-11-01) I like the light on this row of flags at the Mike Lee rally.

Balloons and Pavilion (2013-11-01) A bundle of balloons were tied to a sign at a park pavilion.
Networking at the Rally (2013-11-01) A few local political leaders were engaged in networking at the Mike Lee Rally.
Counter Rally (2013-11-01) There was a small counter rally at the event. Considering the constant attacks against Lee in the press, I was expecting the counter rally to be larger.

Living in Salt Lake, I have never seen as much hatred and venom focused on one man as I have seen focused on Mike Lee. When I mention the name Mike Lee in politically correct circles, they begin foaming at the mouth.
I will never fault a man for standing against a political machine.
Anyway, I was delighted to see a crowd of several thousand at the Welcome Home Rally for Senator Lee.
