100 Days Later: Capturing the Inauguration

20090504_inauguration250.jpg THIS WEEK: Throngs of tourists and general chaos aside, President Obama's inauguration was a monumental moment in American history. From the thousands who lined the National Mall to the weeks' worth of inaugural celebrations, it was an event that will be remembered for many years to come.

Well, that remembrance starts now, 100 days after President Obama's official oath of office, with the opening of National Museum of American History's "I Do Solemnly Swear: Photographs of the 2009 Inauguration." The exhibit features 50 framed color and black-and-white photos documenting the event.

Seems like just yesterday that you spent a morning freezing your feet off on the Mall, right?
