I have great admiration for Chris, who has deployed twice in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and all those who put themselves in harm\u2019s way to protect our freedom. It was a challenging day, weather wise, but we were able to dodge the rain to get a few outside shots. As daylight started to fade, a rainbow made for a beautiful backdrop to the reception at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tacomaslandmark.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Landmark Convention Center <\/a>in Tacoma.
