Pics of Greenville, South Carolina Tea Party on Flickr.

Despite terrible weather in many cases, citizens braved the wind, cold, and rain to exercise their Constitutional right to protest the current direction of the country under Barack Obama and the Democrats.

In St. Louis, over 1500 attended the Tea Party at the famous arch.
 
In Chicago, between 800 and 1000 braved the bad weather to gather to protest the massive spending of taxpayers' money by the federal government.
 
Atlanta was the site of another well-attended Tea Party.
 
Many smaller towns and cities participated in the semi-simultaneous events around the country, such as Shelby, Alabama, Asheville, North Carolina, and Greenville, South Carolina.
 
Some cities were forced to postpone their Tea Parties due to the fact that initially local organizers had planned their events for several months away.  In an attempt to join in with the rest of the country, however, many moved up the date to Friday.  The sudden change of plans and the short notice given hurt attendance in some areas, and in other areas forced organizers to postpone their events until the dates they had originally set.
 
Generally speaking, however, the Tea Party U.S.A. was a large success.
 
For photos and eyewitness reports of the various events around the nation, here are some websites and blogs that will provide you with a good panoramic view of the days' activities.
