[Tony in Hawaii]

Just to put a number on it, I saw a grand total of four (4) Davis signs, held by three (3) people. I didn't count our people, but the figure of 100+ sounds very reasonable.

I spoke to at least one person who just happened to be passing by and joined our rally, and I'm sure she wasn't the only one.

Sacramento is a beautiful city, but a quite frustrating one for a first-timer to navigate. I was lucky, I only had to circle the Capitol three times before I found a parking structure that wasn't too far away.

I had a great time, and the drive up there was actually quite easy. My 15 year old car performed stunningly, and the I-5 is very smooth, if not very scenic or fragrant. :)

I'd like to thank the 99% of drivers on I-5 who maintained proper lane discipline and kept to the right, which allowed me to maintain a steady 80MPH for most of the way. I left Tarzana at about 5 AM and arrived at the Capitol around 11:45, after stopping for breakfast along the way.

Best wishes go out to the couple who was married on the steps of the Capitol just before our rally. Good luck, kids!

I have to agree with you about Sacramento - I figured you couldn't miss the Capitol, but it turns out it's in the middle of this huge park, surrounded by trees.

Picture me, in my electric car, with the charge burning down before my very eyes, not being able to find the Capitol! Visions of a towtruck ignomoniously towing my car back to the rental company were dancing in my head!

It was an adventure I will always remember but don't care to repeat :-).
