Went down for the rally just got back. A good turnout plus a lotta hope for the future. People are hurting and they came from near and far to push for reform. let's hope and pray that it comes soon. Lots of families are depending on it.

Just got home. It was a very positive day. Many Senators and Congressmen came out of their offices and from votes to speak. I think once Capt.TB or Capt. Adam have a chance to digest what happened they will post a complete report.

The fact that when we arrived there were only 3 sponsors of the Senate version, but 6 or 7 Senators spoke, would seem to me we are making progress.

I was on the Sportsman's Center bus, real nice group. Saw some old friends and made some new ones. J B Kasper from the Trenton Times was also aboard so he should have a spin on what happened alsoin one of his next columns.

I had the pleasure of joining the Grumpy's Bait and tackle bus trip to the Washington Rally. The guys deserve a big thank you as they not only priced the trip at only $20 per but had movies down and back as well as great food and drinks, etc. I am sure they spent a lot of their own money on this trip. If we had a lot more businesses like this we would have had even better attendance. I don't want to take anything away from the other businesses that organized bus trips to the rally as they also went above and beyond. Thanks to everyone that helped make this rally a success.

Thanks to all who took the opportunity to go to DC and put our system to work for us all. I, for one, am greatly appreciative.

I know we can all offer many excuses, I am in great peril of losing my job with the continuing economic spiral. Rebound my A** that said I was too nervous to miss any time.

Our system of Democracy can only work if the people, like you, make the effort to be seen and heard. I owe you all a drink, figuratively of course. Though those who catch me on a party boat need only let me know you were on the bus, and I will fork over one ice cold brew, maybe some of my Scotch as well!! I always pack the cooler and almost never seem to have more than 1 or two so I will be well prepared.

THANK YOU ALL for doing what some of us could not.....
