The Poughkeepsie Women's March Across the Hudson (picture heavy)

[Hortensis]

9. Nice! Hardy souls! Much warmer in St. Pete Florida,

(definitely no coats or hats needed), which probably was a factor in a very nice turnout. The march started in a waterfront park and went off up a waterfront boulevard before looping back on another. We live a few minutes away, so my husband, who had something else to do, dropped me off and picked me up.

I skipped most of the speech events at beginning and end and walked with a Michigan woman also wintering here. We had a great time chatting about the signs and people around us, and mostly feeling too glad to be among others who felt as we did to worry, for once, about the reasons we were marching.
