"Little Big Bull Horn" was out today for a while. A local religious group that does not recognize allegiance to any nation was holding American Flags today. Maybe it was for Cinco de Mayo, but I doubt it.
Without getting this AAR pulled, I'm not going to go into what I said other than it rhymes with "Fake'r ------" and I reminded them that they don't give allegiance to any nation.
BELOW: The 7 moonbats holding American flags.
But the 6 of us were there this week with our 4 banners and two large flags. We had a good time. FReepers and Lurkers in attendance today were Cindy_True_Supporter, (CTS), Fraxinus, Lurker Bill and his daughter, (aka Lurker Bill from MD on Walter Reed AARs), [Mrs] Trooprally ([Mrs] T) and myself ([Mr] T).
All pics were by [Mrs] T.
BELOW LEFT: We set the flags out first and take them down last. Me after putting up the Marine flag on our right flank. With the American flags put out by two local businesses, the U.S. flag that is usually above the Marine was not attached to our pole. BELOW RIGHT: Lurker Bill and I putting up one of our four banners.
BELOW LEFT: Lurker Bill and his daughter with Service banner behind them. BELOW RIGHT: One of two banners that Lurker Bill brings to Walter Reed and Olney.
BELOW LEFT: Local and CTS who has stopped by the last several weeks. I invited her to hold a sign but she declined since it was the Sabbath.BELOW RIGHT: CTS and local in back ground, me and Fraxinus.
Some of [Mrs] T's pics of waves. With the sun being mostly behind clouds, it was a little tough getting into the cars. But if you look closely one can see the waves. The motorcycle riders could only beep as they made the turn.
REMEMBER
Next Saturday, same place, Georgia Avenue, MD Rte. 97 and MD Rte. 108 in Olney
NEW TIME - 10:15 AM to 11:45 AM
As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no profanity, no racism, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.
If you live in northern VA and want a short cut to Olney See Post 39 Here. It's an easy 20 minute drive from the American Legion Bridge.
A special Thanks to a FReeper FRiend for enhancing the original plain type directions.
The Archive of Olney FReeps is here or in the LINKS section of Trooprally's ABOUT Page.
WEATHER UPDATES HERE.
[Mr] & [Mrs] T
Quakers with flags are lying.
I am so glad to see you in shirtsleeves.
It was 87 degrees here today and we had some much needed rain. I hope it is warming up so I can come and join you soon.
Thank you for being there!
[Mr] T
At least you don't have to cross any streets in Olney. :-))
[Mr] T
A good thing...no crossing streets...sometimes I am slower than ever.
Thought maybe you would be at the “white-tie” tonight.
I had to send regrets this time. LOL
But if you are not going to attend GoE II, can you stand at Olney? Time is roughly 10AM for set up till 11:45 or so.
If you can make it, maybe BufordP can get his to come and keep you company.
Please let us know so we can make plans to get you flags, signs and banners.
Thanks [Mr] T
Good Morning 3D.
Our invite was lost in the mail.
Though I was thinking of crashing it, and at least be at the front gate with a “Thank You Brits for Your Support With The WOT” sign.
Take Care.
[Mr] T
bump!
Olney faithful FReepers bump!!
I admit I watched and wondered if the DC Chapter would gather to do just that!
The D.C. Chapter IS gathering for the May 26 Support the Troops Rally. We gathered from far and wide to protect the Monuments, now we need to do the same for a Support Rally.
It looks good from what I hear.
[Mr] T
I am glad to hear it...
Combination event with GOE’s?
Looking forward to seeing you all again. Since we'll all be in one place, maybe we'll get to talk more.
PS - I'm going to hid my new sign. :-))
[Mr] T
Had to rib you that one last time. I like the new sign I made up. It has color to it. Besides, so long as the Vet took the sign home, I’m not worried.
Actually, we do have a lot of poster paper signs that are to be given out.
