I, of course, could not.

Good turnout, I hope, and what a great occasion for a meetup!

Told us about the 30-year-old Peace Vigil in DC which is in need of help, BTW.

They had to help them move for the parade but back again the next day.

Too cold, too difficult to get down there,

and you might have noted the parade ran into the night if you watched it on tv.

Even some of the people in the reviewing stands had to get up and leave...

I did all that 4 years ago (and was happier about the whole thing at the time)

Did they close all the bridges to Virginia this year again, I wonder?
Especially apropos since Virginia is a big RKBA state

G stands for the Ghost in the (DU) Machine.

Me, I've been hardly online in the past two weeks.
