At a stop! Not all wearing their hats but wearing their shirts and buttons. Amazing conversations in line! Ontario, Akron, Howell MI, Pittsburgh and Lansing.

Vast Sea of Humanity
We are the popular vote! What an amazing day! I don’t know what media is saying, but this is a vast movement of human beings fighting for human rights. And not just here. I don’t know the count yet, but it has got to have been over 500,000. Men, women, children, LGBTQ young, old, peopleContinue reading “Vast Sea of Humanity”
Jessie Jackson’s hands on my shoulders!
Yep. That’s him!
Art of Tea (and friend ) Making
It’s the end of our day – we are chilling and getting ready to head to bed. We found ladies at DuPont Circle who are organizers for their state – they told us where Michigan was meeting up- and we got pictures. Then we headed to the Women’s Democratic Clubhouse where we got free MakeContinue reading “Art of Tea (and friend ) Making “
What to do instead of the Inaguration

Giving and serving is part of who I am and what I believeContinue reading “What to do instead of the Inaguration”

Road Tripping
First, I’d like to say I am not worried in the least about our march being dangerous. I mostly posted my tear gas article because I thought it was funny that I’m packing these things. But I have faith things will go as they should. I really do. So no fretting for me, just beContinue reading “Road Tripping”
In Case of Tear Gas
I’m not going to D.C. to look for a literal fight, but I’ve heard there may be groups there trying to instigate violence. Lovely James O’Keef and his lot among others. So I’m prepared. Visine, bandana and subglasses. Even though a former special forces dude assured me tear gas isn’t that bad- I’m going toContinue reading “In Case of Tear Gas”
