Have been looking for a thread from some Freepers in D.C. for the March...would like to get a sense of the momentum. Have to go to Williamsburg for a funeral tomorrow...hope to be back in Richmond for a local event at Bailey’s Pub and Restaraunt in the afternoon.

I don’t want to make you feel bad, but you should have. The incredible thing I keep hearing is that people just got in their cars...no plans..just came down here when they heard about it...WE ARE HERE TO TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY!

Thanks..we've been here since Wednesday. I'd forgotten what an incredible city DC is. We've been doing sightseeing and today spent the day at the Smithsonian. We just returned from having a fabulous dinner down at the waterfront. I even ran into Newt Gingrich yesterday!!! It's been a great trip!

Don’t let it ‘dampen your spirits’! Think of it as a ‘Baptism’...so-to-speak. I think there’s significant symbolism, there. ;-)
