[Peace] it was cold, but we did have a peace demonstration / eagle

[David Green]

Next time we should probably just plan to do shifts; that way I wouldn't end up feeling like a wimp.
It seemed important to me that people see that even a few people are willing to brave the elements; for all they know, we were there all day. Responses were positive.
The populace has never been more antiwar, sez me.

 Dear Peace,

It was a very cold day today, but we had a successful peace demonstration!
Thanks to all who came out! Especially Doug! Karen M, Carl, David, Karen A, Midge, Don, and Dan! 

It was not windy. Barely any snow. But the temperatures were low. 
We saw a bald eagle fly over! (we = Doug, Karen M, and Don). That was the first time I have ever seen a bald eagle in this town. We are not even close to the rivers that they follow. 

We had a lot of honks and waves. One "f____ing idiots" and of course some people ignored us. Overwhelmingly positive.

Doug did an entire 2 hours (he even arrived early). The rest of us did part of the two hours. For instance, my feet were cold so I took a few minutes to browse the book store and then returned to the streets. We ended around 3:50pm.
