FW: Pool report

Open press but here's a pool report:

POTUS emerged from the Oval Office at 10:06 and walked across the South Lawn smiling and waving at a crowd of WH visitors that included a couple dozen children who screeched at the sight of him.

Before boarding Marine One, he waved one more time at the crowd.

After POTUS boarded the chopper, Robert Gibbs, Valerie Jarrett, Mona Sutphen and Ellen Moran followed.

Reggie Love, carrying what looked like a heavy load, was the last one to board.

Wheels up at 10:09.
