11. It was very difficult to determine at first
A lot of people didn't attend the rally but were waiting on the perimeters to join the march. There were huge groups everywhere but not all together. Once the march began and everyone began gathering on the street, it was a little easier to determine just how large it was. Rough estimate...between 150,000 - 200,000.

It seemed the only arrests being made were those brave enough to jump the barriers at the base of the Capitol steps. I saw at least 4 people do this but there could have been more. It was hard to see from my vantage point.

It was such a thrill to suddenly find myself so close to Cindy. She's such a sweetheart. Thanks for the recommend. :D
