2. Woo-WOO! Good Morning! What a delicious hangover...

Met people from all over the country who had come to attend this rally! Michigan, Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois...Ohio, Texas, New York, Tennessee!

And I believe in my heart there WERE 200,000 people there. Wave after wave of people kept coming. It was a giant massive flowing sea of wonderful righteous people. Just overwhelming & made you feel breathless... it was COLD and windy! We stayed all day and until the sun went down and we were chilled all the way through our clothes. Very tired today but it is a good tired...

B-) :hi: SOLIDARITY is a GOOD FEELING! :grouphug:

4. I couldn't make it for the morning (St. Patrick's Day parade in Milwaukee)

but got there around 3pm. As we were walking up Mifflin there was a steady stream of people leaving from the early shift. So even if there was no one time when 200K were present, there was a huge number of people there during the day.

After dinner we drove around the Capitol Square on our way out of town. My 17 year old daughter didn't want to leave. I was proud of her.
