Little follow up, dear wife did not take pictures but said that two different people counted over 400 marchers in our little county seat for today's event. Only thing that gets a bigger turnout than that is the Rodeo. Lots of horn honking and thumbs up to the marchers. Of course they had to have the Town Idiot show up driving his pic-em-up truck with confederate battle flag who took a couple of passes, got no response and left.

All and all a very delightful event and I'm so proud of her for going that I'm not going to make her feed all the animals tomorrow by herself (yeah like I ever get to tell that woman to do anything )
