A Third Kind


This is a Close Encounter moment for me. As much as I don't want to take a trip on the dreaded Metro this morning and as much as I don't want to march alone among crowds of strangers, I found myself compelled to go. I've been building a mountain of mashed potatoes in my head all week-except that my mountain looks more like the Washington Monument. 


The road that runs smack down the middle of my county and brought me home for the 20 plus years I was a PGCPS teacher leads right to the front door of the White House so I can't just pretend like today is just another Saturday. I'm off. Wish me luck.

  2. You will make us all proud! My pink hats will be marching in Madison WI today and I'll wear mine when we go out today. I might have to watch a bit of tv today to see if that march in DC gets coverage. I couldn't bear to turn it on yesterday. Be safe.

  5. Good for you!!! I so wanted to be there in DC for the march but couldn't quite swing it so I marched in Charlotte with 10,000 other like minded people. It felt amazing!!
