The D.C. Chapter will keep this Saturday vigil at the Pentagon going for as long as D.C. Chapter members desire. Out of town FReepers and lurkers in good standing are welcome to meet us there from 2 p.m. until at least 4 p.m.

EAGLES UP

Thank you as always for all that the D.C. Chapter do for us.

While talking with BufordP, I kept hearing the strains of bagpipes. I glanced over to the area closer to the Pentagon were a temporary fence has been set up to keep us civilians out of the construction area. There a lone piper was playing "Amazing Grace." A hush settled over the hill. When he was finished, he packed his pipes up and moved off smartly. It was an eerie and gripping moment.

Nice job, DC chapter. I admire what you've been doing.

I would have liked to have heard the bagpipes. Very emotional moment, I'm sure.

Thank you for remembering the first victims in this ugly war. And thank you for reminding all of us. This is a vigil worth standing.

You need to track down this piper. He's a FReeper, whether he knows it yet or not. And Free Republic could use a good bagpiper, wot?

Thanks for being there, everyone. I just couldn't get out of something else. Hope to be at the next one.

BTW, is anyone heading up into the land of the "Anti-Smoking Nazis" (Kensington) this afternoon? Anyone need a ride?
