Solo Freeps of Leftists are fun. But sharing the fun with your fellow Freepers is much better. We had about 17 people at the "Typhoon at Toddy's" Freep, and almost 30 at the Johnson's Corner meal afterwards. At least some Freepers were out there at Toddy's from shortly after 11:00, until 12:50. The Leftists - at half their number of last week (3) lasted from 12:05 to 12:25, at which time they slouched home shortly after the rain began.
BTW - Some attending Freepers not mentioned above in Weld's post are The Shrew and his lovely wife Diva 2 (Diva Two?)
Here's what the curb looked like as we left. Just to the right of center you can see a tiny bit of it gasping for breath:
Nothing like a nice strong wind to make the flags look great:
We were waving all the time to the passersby demonstrating their support for our troops with their honks and waves and cheers. The honking just wouldn't stop! I'll bet this is really demoralizing to the Leftists.
FireEngineRed mans the SE corner:
Fivetoes gets his camcorder set up on the NE corner:
The Leftists were quiet today when we said the Pledge of Allegiance. When Duncan used to hang out with them, he would scream "Sieg Heil!" over and over, along with his best imitation Nazi salute, during the entire Pledge.
Don't feel bad if you can't make out the words on any of their signs (other than the meaningless "Women in Black" banner). None of the people driving by could make them out either.

Wow!! What a great day to be an American. You Missouri Freepers take good care of the Robinsons, now!

Nice pics Larry. It was a fun day even in the pouring rain.

Wow. I remember some of that kind of flooding on the streets in Colorado. We get a lot more rain here, but the roads don't seem to turn into lakes like there do there (although my front yard does sometimes....but only briefly).
Some great pictures there.
