From the Camargo Club

Howard Wilkinson reports:

We're at the Camargo Club, a country club in Indian Hill.

Some color from the ride to Indian Hill:

As the presidential motorcade made its way to the Indian Hill home of John Barrett, CEO of Western & Southern Financial Group, the crowds of largely supportive and excited people lining the tree-shaded streets of Madeira and Indian Hill made it clear that this is, as one little girl's sign said: "This is Bush country."

On Miami Ave. in downtown Madeira, a half dozen white-clad nuns stood jumping up and down and waving at the motorcade from their spot on the lawn of St. Gertrude's Church.

As the motorcade made its way down Shawnee Run from Madeira into the heart of Indian Hill, the only protesters to be seen were a small group at the corner of Drake Road and Shawnee Run who waved anti-Bush signs and booed.

On its way to the Barrett home, the motorcade passed the white gates leading to the estate of financier Carl Lindner, one of Bush's biggest financial supporters.
