It's over? They travel across country for a week and then can't stay for more than a couple of hours???

A couple of hours was plenty long enough in that heat and humidity. Unlike the other side, we had no "Patriot House" to retreat to. No Soros provided trailers (although we there two or three motor homes, some from the caravan, one that was there much earlier) As it was we had at least a couple of people hauled off in ambulances, and some number of others treated on site for heat exhaustion.

The heat really was horrendous wasn't it? We brought a cooler full of water - and it's just about all gone. I've never drunk so much water in one day in my life.

Next time I'm bringing Gatorade.

All in all tho' it was a marvelous day wasn't it? It was tremedous to see SO MANY different groups represented - and all of us there to support the troops and our president!

The community center building was air conditioned, and it was refreshing to just step in there for 5 or 10 minutes at a time. It wasn't crowded.

Thanks to everyone at the Crawford event for making this an OUTSTANDING day. This was my first Freeper event and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting all the wonderful folks who are proud of this country and what it stands for...

And yes, it was definitely an August Texas day. You know you’re a Texan when you realize asphalt has a liquid state.

I think most people didn't realize that the VERY air conditioned community center adjacent to the rally was open for all. They had cases and cases of donated water to hand out. I, too, wish the rally had lasted longer.
