8. I'd say go for it, a once in a lifetime event that should be a blast. There's a good GUIDE

about the event from Burlington Free Press circulating- beware crowds expected to be large and parking is apparently a big issue for the Waterfront Park area.

Be careful on the road, and can you bring back some of those new 'revolution' T-Shirts campaign staffers are unpacking now? Just kidding. Good luck and have fun if you make it.
That's such a beautiful area, I was in Putney a couple years ago and have visited VT and the NH border area.

I had the chance to meet Bernie last month at an event in DC when he led an anti-TPP rally in front of the US Trade Representatives Offices there. It was a Populism 2015 conference that I found out about late, but finished all my work, registered, posted about it on DU and was excited.

But the night before my boyfriend threw his back out badly from work and was immobilized for a week so I couldn't go. Not his fault but I missed a good conference and Bernie, oh well. Here's coverage of the rally and great photo of Bernie with 1,000 anti-TPP folks on the last day of the conference, April 20.
