From the article it sounds like Derek Parra went instead of Scott. Hope Scott is ok.

I notice the article described Michelle as "Olympic gold medal winning figure skater Michelle Kwan". How nice they got it right.

Scott may not have been there early this morning at the Hampton because he was up in Sun Valley last night, which is three hours away.

Michelle was invited by President Clinton to attend a function for the Chinese ambassador in 1999, I believe. President Bush named her to be an envoy as well as to be on the President's Council of Physical Fitness. Vice-President Biden expressed something lovely about Michelle.. Michelle Kwan has transcended politics, race, religion, age...and brought all different types of people together..She is a uniter, not a divider..

I have enjoyed, immensely, viewing these photos and reading the related blurbs. Seeing the genuine joy on the athletes, as well as the volunteers and dignataries faces, takes me back to the days when I was fortunate to volunteer for this very special program. It's no wonder, to me, that all the smiles Michelle (and others) is expressing seem to come from the bottom of her heart. No one in skating today can show their "heart on her sleeve" like Michelle-the Kween-Kwan. I'd rather spend my time viewing these photos of amateurs and pros coming together to celebrate one of the most satisfying competitions than to look at even ONE from the charity benefit at the playboy mansion.
