I'm going to the Capitol tomorrow to show solidarity for our brothers and sisters in Wisconsin
I hate to say that it'll be my first "protest" since the 70s. I vote and do my best to passively participate in the political process but have avoided the mass demonstrations. Well this time is different. It's time for me to stand up for what I believe in.

I hope that many of my fellow DUers will be doing the same. I'll take pictures and try to post them tomorrow night.

5. I'm a Pennsylvanian heading to Columbus-it's closer than Harrisburg and
picking up my nephew from college to go with me. Picket signs all ready to go.

6. Sign? Uh Oh.....
I'm new at this. I'm more of a photographer than an artist. I think I'll take pictures of other people's signs.

8. I have friends who are on a bus right now from Detroit to WI....
How could I not make the 10 mile trip downtown? Just got contacted but one of the local organizers. I volunteered to help with the sound and anything else needed. This is kinda fun!
