We got back to the grounds with flags and signs at 2:02pm and there were already quite a few gathered. Of course there were many American flags there and hand made signs each one different.

I was there, but unfortunately didn't get to meet everyone from the Heart of Texas Chapter. I think I only meet Gracey.
I made the news on News 8 Austin. There is a short video only clip of me holding a large American flag on a wooden pole, trying to drive some sense into some "useful idiots" who showed up and tried to poop on our gathering.

Fox News Channel (yes, the national cable channel, not just the local affiliate!) ran footage of our rally this morning during the 7:30am (central time) newsbreak on Fox & Friends!
(Unfortunately, I didn't get it on tape.) :-(
But we actually made the national news!

This was our very first rally and my husband and I brought our two little boys. (They were so cute waving their flags that someone from the UT paper came up to take their picture.) We will definitely be going to the next one, and we have even committed my in-laws to attend with us! Just wish we could come up with some clever and creative signs as wonderful as the ones we saw. One more thing: we were especially impressed by how happy, polite, and gracious everyone was! Who wants to associate with grumpy old scowling liberals when we can hang out with a much more fun crowd like y'all???? THANKS, AUSTIN FREEPERS!!!
