Thank you for posting this and pinging me to it! Congratulations to you and your kids. It is an incredible experience. We had a little march here in St. Augustine (our first one; before we just had a rather quiet vigil) and we got about 300 people. That's pretty impressive for a small place like this. Most of the passersby, including our many tourists, were either positive or, if opposed, weren't too gross about it. No spitting, punching or shrieking, as happened on pro-life marches when I lived in NYC!

I bet the kids were thrilled and I am sure they will be coming back next year too. I think I will try to find a bus from Florida to come up with, as well. Or maybe Roe v Wade will be overturned by then? Miracles do happen - although I'm not sure there's a case on the horizon at the moment. But I sure hope Bush gets at least one more appointment, and that might make it possible.

Salve Livius.

There was a big group from Orlando present at the March. I would contact the your local Diocese for direction in the matter. In addition to the church groups I would really like to have the oppoortunity to meet some of my FReeper friends at such an event,...

I hope the president can swing one more appointment; the anti-Souter would suit me just fine.
