I saw lots of Biden/ Harris signs....

....in many yards as my husband and I took a lovely drive around our neighborhood and town yesterday.

I live in a red state. Last year, we saw tons of Trump signs in our neighborhood yards and throughout our town.

Yesterday, while we were taking a nice drive (looking for landscaping ideas that we might use ourselves), we were surprised to see many, many Biden signs! We both were pleasantly surprised and hope this means that many Trump supporters are changing their minds.

I am feeling pretty excited about it. Most of these people live in middle-class neighborhoods, but we saw Biden signs in a few lower-income neighborhoods as well. I don’t want to pigeonhole people and resort to stereotypes regarding Trump supporters, so I will just say that I feel terrible that some of them seem to be struggling financially and still believe that Trump cares about their lives, needs, and dreams.

I wouldn’t have bothered to post about this except that there were so many signs for Biden. Believe me, we live in the midst of Trump Country-Bible Belt, U.S.A.....so this is highly unusual.

Go Joe!!

Oh, something funny we saw: A huge yard sign saying “Woody and Buzz for 2020!”.....LOL.....We took pictures to share with our kids and friends. They got a kick out of that.

So far, we have been lucky and not had any Biden signs stolen or defaced. Good idea to put those signs in the window, though.

I am happy to know that you have only seen one Trump sign!

So far, we have been lucky and haven’t had anyone steal our signs.

But, like you, I have only seen these Biden signs pop up very recently. It’s as if they sprouted up overnight!

Seems like something good is happening out there.
