Another road trip



Today thousands of people from all over the country are converging on Washington for what organizers and participants hope is an enormous rally in support of a progressive agenda. The event/coalition is called One Nation Working Together.

Supporters of this event and follow-up activities include groups such as the AFL-CIO, the NAACP, and many others, including the American Friends Service Committee. According to the One Nation website,

One Nation Working Together is a social movement of individuals and organizations committed to putting America back to work and pulling America back together. Coming from a diverse set of backgrounds, experiences, beliefs and orientations, we are determined to build a more united country with good jobs, equal justice, and quality public education for all.


Ten buses will be heading that way from El Cabrero's beloved state of West Virginia and I plan to be on one of them. The downside is that it leaves at 3:00 a.m. My back and neck are already hurting in anticipation.

Full report Monday.

Especially when it actually runs!

Well yeah I guess that's a plus!

I finally got the doors fixed on mine so I don't have to enter thru the passenger side by leaving the vent window open, reaching inside and opening the passenger door from the inside.

Hubies in Milton rocks!
