Spending the day with my family from Pt Arthur.

Be thinking of you, and hopefully there's a good turn out.

and rafts,it may rain on your protest...I'll be watching for Cindy in
Washington DC.....Go Cindy Sheehan !!!!!!!!!

so pls assume it's ON unless actually raining.

Who's organizing this thing, BTW?

Yours truly accidentally left the camera at home, so I don't have any pics this time. I met snot out there (Hiya!), who generously supplied me with a Honk If You Love Cindy sign to carry around.

When I got there at 5pm, there were at most 10 folks protesting, but the number steadily grew to 25 before I had to leave. Folks from the Dallas Peace Center and North Texans for Justice and Peace lent thier support. Even some passing motorists stopped to help out with the protest for a while.

And yes, it was windy! Almost ripped the signs out of the hands of some protesters. But we stayed dry, and someone brought a jambox with Talking Heads playing on it, so that helped keep out spirits up.

We did get a reporter from the Dallas Morning News out to the protest site to interview some folks. All the photographers are covering hurricane territory, but it's nice that this reporter was able to talk to some of us. There's a brief mention of the Dallas protest on page 6A of the DMN if you're interested.

Great to see snot and everyone else there yesterday!
