Share Your Inauguration Day Plans And Photographs

On Wednesday, we asked readers to share their Inaugural Day plan. Responses continue to pour in. Some of you have expressed regret that you will be too busy to watch the event, many of you will celebrate with your community, and quite a few people have admitted that they expect to bawl through the entire address.

Katie McGee, in St. Paul, worked for the Obama campaign for nearly two years and says she is "planning on going to the Riverview Theater in Minneapolis where the proprietor has opened the vintage theatre to the public to view the inauguration on the big screen for free."

Carol, from New York, will be making the trip to Washington on Tuesday. "Long bus ride but well worth the opportunity to witness history & begin the new journey," she writes.

From San Luis Obispo, California, Kim Ryherd says, "I expect a joyous celebration around the world as we start over! We are the change we've been waiting for!"

If you are organizing a community event, traveling to Washington, or commemorating the day in your own unique way, share you plans with us by clicking here.

We are also looking for photojournalists. Take pictures of your local watch party or community ball and send them as attachments to [e-mail]. Write your caption in the subject line and attach the photos in jpeg format.

Captions should include as much information about the image as possible. Please include where the photograph was taken, when it was taken and who (or what) is in the photo.

You can view HuffPost's photostream here.

Check back on Monday to see the photos in our massive inaugural slideshow.

Will watch this historic inaguration on my large 52" TV in the comfort of my home and then thank our Good Lord for sending this wonderful, smart, unique man that will bring change to our country... the world. This is what we have been waiting for!

I will also celebrate into the night. Whoopie!

I've decided that I will watch Obama getting sworn in while down on my knees scrubbing my floors. I will do so as a personal symbolic gesture in appreciation of all of those who have labored relentlessly and unselfishly with a solid commitment to building a better nation. My floors will represent the foundation upon which we must begin rebuilding upon. These floors will shine as they cast reflections of my efforts. Then I will move on to the windows. I will scrub away everything until they are glistening and flawlessly transparent. This will be a symbolic gesture representing the cleansing of our image through the eyes of the world. This will also represent the clarity with which I hope to envision the world through my own eyes. Once these tasks have been completed I'll visit with a handful of friends and neighbors over a bottle or two of champagne.

I'll be at the dentist. I tried to reschedule, but there wasn't anything else available. I called to make sure they would have it on the dentist chair TV.

I'm okay with it however, as I trust my dentist and I know Barack Obama knows the drill.

Like many other Americans I have to work. I will though be rolling tape and be able to take in the festivities. Also there will likely be TVs on everywhere and I can take in bits and pieces.

Thank you HuffPo for this spectacular photograph, which I hope to download and frame as it expresses to perfection my feelings about tomorrow. As I live in Italy and do not have a TV I will hopefully be watching tomorrow's festivities online with HuffPo as I did for election night. I will have a 4 yr old boy with me and hope to get him to watch a little in between readings of The Cat in the Hat Comes Back and Eloise Breaks Eggs. I contacted the Vatican to see if they could spare an exorcist for the demons in my computer, which manufactures new problems everyday, but all exorcists were occupied with casting out demons from Italian politicians. Loved reading (most of) the messages here. For those who persist with doom and gloom I suggest immediate appointments with psychiatrists who can prescribe appropriate meds. Better yet, call an exorcist.

Perception is a wonderful thing!!!

Unfortunately, my 10 year old daughter is in day 6 of running a fever and feeling lousy. She and my wife will be staying home and watching on the TV. My 13 year old son and I are going to be catching the Shady Grove Metro at 4:00 and going to the non-ticketed side of the Mall. It is too important to miss. We have to bear witness to our nation being reclaimed from the psychos.

God Bless America, and God Bless Barak Obama!

For some people the thought of americans "coming together" around this PE is sickening, mainly because they are part of (or want to be part of) the factions that have profited greatly from the divisions
within the country. Being the "boon of capitalism" that this country is, rest assured that many see "Obama's Change, and era of responsibility" as a blatant obstacle in the way of their profiteering from divisiveness.

[Hotshortie]

I wish I could be in Washington. Just watching TV is making me wish I was there taking in all the positive energy. All the Hope! All the good feelings!!! I'm just so proud !!! I do wish I was in Washington.

I think this is amazing for our Country.

I figure the best seat in the house, my sofa watching everything from the comfort of my home.

[Bitsko]

Great idea and good luck with it, but this New Yorker will be too busy celebrating to take photos.

Going to the Newseum to view swearing-in and parade. Bringing plenty of tissues. ..
