Yes! And it was a much smaller city back in the early 90s. It really felt like the whole city showed up to that march

Side parts rule. I have a very asymmetrical face, and a middle part just looks silly. Plus my sister and I have been referring to middle parts as “butt parts” since the 70s. There’s no way I will ever have a butt part.

We gathered for the photo and then marched through downtown Bainbridge Island to the ferry. It took 35 minutes to empty the park…there were a lot of people!

I’m looking for good sign ideas for tomorrow’s #nokings rally. I’ve got one side figured out but need something for the reverse side. Any suggestions?
