Gee! Are you guys lucky!

Actually, my congress critter, John Mica (North Florida) is very good and I wanted to visit his offices after the march, but I had to go to Mass and then trek back to Dulles (not an easy trek!) so I never made it. The speeches at the rally were so good I listened for hours!

Maybe Mica was there. I should write to him and ask him.

It is hard to put into words. It was a very emotional experience walking down Penn Ave with my 13 yr old daughter next to me. I held back tears at times. I felt so proud to be there.

Everyone I talked to was wonderful. I had an older woman whisper in my ear that she was a Dem but had to do this because she was so mad at what the POTUS and Congress is doing.

I was so impressed by the older ones in wheelchairs and walkers. We are America.

I have bad arthritis in my knees, my friend that I went with kept asking me if I was okay... I told her nothing would stop me from going all the way to the Capitol. Her wonderful sons carried the folding chairs in a bag, I told them not to but boy I am I glad they did!!!!

Today I ordered the C-span dvd for my daughter to keep and to remember what we did.

I would do it again tomorrow.

Thank you!!!

We decided to go last minute. I had to think about it for about ten minuts. I HATE the PA turnpike. Makes my palm sweat....

Made it home fine, thanks. I hate the PA turnpike with a passion. We took the kids sightseeing for a bit on Sunday morning and made it home around 6:30 that evening.

Ya, we got to meet the BIG MAN himself (Jim Robinson), in addition we attended the Free Republic Convention...WOW, is all I can say.

Met so many truly great people...Wilkow, Kaufman and West totally blew my 13 year old son away with how well they articulated the Conservative Movement.

My kid kept reapting Wilkow’s line; We are right, they are wrong...end of the story! Hoo-ya...long live the republic!

You two keep talking about it and reliving it and having fun.
