Sept. 21 2014 in NYC: People's Climate March - THIS WILL BE HUGE!!!! BE THERE

[LiberalElite]

21. It was a great moment -

I was way back on 81st street and as the time wore on with no movement (not until 2:30 p.m.) I and another volunteer complained that we'd miss the moment of silence followed by the noisemaking. I had temporarily parked my butt on a low fence surrounding a tree when I noticed everyone standing with their hands up. I got up, held up my hands and at the right time, blew my whistle HARD. Probably everyone had been told about it in one way or another and at 12:58 it was like a wave - the hands went up in front and everyone followed suit. There was no sound equipment or screens back there so we missed the speeches. That's ok by me. I feel like I've heard all of it before...

Not surprised you're tired. I keep a pedometer on me and at the end of the day it totalled 9.85 miles. I had previously arranged to take off today so after a very early bedtime I stayed put for 12 hours.
