White House press secretary Robert Gibbs held his daily briefing outside in the White House Rose Garden Thursday, which is believed to be a first at the presidential mansion.

The weather was perfect as reporters filled outside, and Gibbs warned the gathered press to avoid sunburns.

"I hope you're wearing your sunscreen," Gibbs said. "I put on SPF 30, three times. That's 90 for you keeping track at home."
