I caught up with the NYS March outside of Adams Center on the way to Watertown on Fri. Tobey (dog) and I walked another 2 miles and then drove to Watertown. I dressed in my Raging Granny outfit and spoke to teens and women on the street about the march and how we Grans support peace and social justice. I welcomed the walkers as they approached the Different Drummer Cafe. I was such a small part of the true American Spirit, but the Vets,support team and organizers are the courageous. The real voices of Americans across NY have been shared. The real MISSION ACCOMPLISHED sign has unfolded. We must never cease to take care of our Vets as beautiful treasures.
