Last Saturday's Rally

      Hi everyone. Happy Friday. We're in this grey weather period with only a couple of sunny days lately. My area needs some sun so the outside  will start to green up a bit more as right now it's really drab. Plus it's making me really drab, or drabber than I already am-grin, ha ha 😏😁😉.

   I'm here today to join Nicole for Friday Face Off and Gillena for Friday Lunch Break Last Saturday was a Day of Protests in many places in the US, and I think in many places around the world too. A friend and I went to the protest in Portsmouth (New Hampshire), and it was quite a lively scene. 

    I know many of you who attended rallies have already shown photos, and as usual I'm a few days behind everyone.  I wanted to save my photos for Friday because there were lots of good signs and some of them had some great faces for Friday Face Off, starting with this large orange voodoo doll.

















    The protest wasn't quite over when we left because our feet and hands were going numb as it was a cold and wet day, but my friend who was driving suggested we drive down the street through the crowds so we could see how big the rally actually was.  As we went through we beeped the horn and waved and the crowd was quite appreciative of that too. In some people's posts this past week it looked as if the crowds were walking, but the one I attended was  along the sides of a busy main street.

  These next few photos give you an idea of the crowd size at just one end of the street. Seeing this is only about 1/4 of the distance where there were crowds, you can make a pretty good estimate of how many people were there.







     Even though most folks have already shared their rally photos, it's good to remember what happened last weekend. That's all for me. Have a great weekend ahead.
