Well, we are snowed in from joining the marches

So we are watching on the TV and wishing we were among the people someplace sharing our rage against a society that has allowed our children to become targets in a perverted claim of freedom - all to sell more guns

They said to bring snow boots and dress warmly. 2:30 at Vanderveer in front of the fountain. Not sure if I can go however. Wife working, kids at a party. But if I can go, I'll file a report.

and driving into one of the cities to join in would be way too hazardous.

I would love to go to Muscatine just to see who shows up. This has to be the first time they have joined in to a progressive cause.

Will be looking for your report!
