22. LOVE it votesparks!

I went to a street fair today and wore my new white Bernie shirt...got thumbs up from 2 and a whispered "go Bernie" from another. I also had a few pockets cards from FeelTheBern.org with me, that I gave to all of them. Three ain't many but it plants a few more seeds...I can say I got a LOT of looks.

This is not a huge fair (El Segundo, CA) but it's fun to quickly walk through and then go home...but, if I had thought of it sooner, I should have checked to see if we could have had a Bernie table! There was one for someone running for the local school board and a couple for local ballot measures...I just wasn't thinking BUT there is next year and I'm making a note to look in to it early, for next September.

Lastly...I got a Bernie yard sign from his store yesterday...wire holder to put in the ground for the sign. The funny thing is, the sign is like a heavy weight plastic bag, open on the bottom and printed on both sides...measures 26" wide X 16" high. I want to see if I can seal up a space at one end and turn it into a flag! I have a poll on the house and swap out banners and the American flag...I would love to have a Bernie Flag! Also might look into having the Bernie logo printed on vinyl through a poster printer (I sort of have access to that ) and make that into a flag.
