Got out and joined a Memorial Day demonstration. We went and stood with the Veterans For Peace at the National Cemetery in our city.
My wife and I had gone out to feed prairie dogs at the park (part of a group that supports local ecology, we do it once a week) and as we drove home, passing the cemetery, we saw they had put out a canvas display with all the names of the soldiers killed in Iraq. Reporters were around, so we talked to a couple and stuck around to lend moral support, before going home to wash all the dust and grain-pellet chips off.
All in all... we refilled our bird feeder station, fed the rabbits in the field next to us, we fed the prairie dogs and sat on the park bench watching them come out of their burrows and chirp at us (We're paid in full! Thanks little guys!) joined *two* political activist groups *and* lent support to a demonstration! It's been a GOOD day!
And it's only 2:00! What mischief can we get into NOW?
