| Olympic Torch Relay in Tucson, January 13th, 2002 Pictures by Ann L., Flo & Fred Wilson, Lolita, Bob C., and Kodak 1/13/02 |
 The morning started with the first 13 torch bearers meeting at the Amtrak depot downtown. |
 Each bearer would be the only person in the world carrying the Olympic flame at that moment. |
 The Olympic train pulled into the depot. |
 The first runner lit his torch... |
 ...and started off through downtown Tucson. |
||
 A few of the Tucson Sk8 Club and Phoenix Predators members who came to watch Ed carry the torch. |
 Waiting for Ed to arrive. |
 Ed was the 10th torchbearer in Tucson. This was his starting point. |

 One of the Olympic vans that dropped off and picked up the runners. |

 Ed, waiting for the torch. |
 And here it comes, torchbearer 9 with the runners' assistant. |
 Getting ready for the flame. |
 The passing of the flame. (And the passing of the assistant in front of the camera.) |
 Another view. |
||
 OK, can't let this pass without a hug. |
 There WILL be a hug! |
 And a little smooch. |
 At last! Ed takes the torch. |
 ...and holds it high! |
||
 Always something getting in front of the camera. |
 Moving right along. |
 |
 Here they come. |
 Another shot of Diana. |
||
 There goes Ed. |
 And now passing the flame to runner 11. |
 The Olympic rep will remove the gas cannister. |
 Some closeups of the torch. |
