My therapist saw me at Saturday's 'No Kings' rally

He was headed to his mother in law's 80th birthday and SOMEHOW picked me out from that crowd!

Now he knows, first hand, that I haven't completely given up.

The nearest town here had hundreds of people show up. Everyone thought that was a good turnout for such a small town, and I agree.

No idea what the turn out was, but it was great to hear they were even happening.
