70. Not all of us display yard signs and bumper stickers.

Aug 2020

I was out on my mile walk about an hour ago.

There's a house that I walk past that has a Biden flag and a "Build bridges, not walls" yard sign. As I was approaching this home, a man was out in the yard doing something but it was becoming dark so I couldn't really tell what was going on. I noticed he displayed another Biden banner that was almost the length of the house and super skinny.


I wanted to tell him that I liked his banners, but he went inside before I got the chance.
