Road Trip!

welcome to meriden

CT is the place to be, and so scarecrow, Kathryn in MA, RevDeb and I headed south. RevDeb offered me a ride in her air conditioned car - but I was, as usual, late.... and so drove down on my own to Ned Lamont's Meriden office. No doubt I was in the right place, the Kiss-mobile's new friend - the Say-No-to-Joe van was parked outside.

Inside, I met up with other democracy loving patriots to go door-to-door and otherwise volunteer for the Ned Lamont campaign. Canvassed for 4 plus hours in 90 degree heat with Vivian and Bayard, and then back to the office to meet up with other groups as they came back from canvassing... off to see Ned at the New Haven Gospel Music Festival. We weren't alone - in addition to the music lovers we saw Gwen Ifill , who told us that CT was the place to be... 'course we already knew THAT. Then off Sullivan's for the evening meet-up. Check out our pics in Saturday's photo album (Jane, Trex, Ned, Ned's parents, Gwen Ifill, and more). We're here through Wednesday, and will post each day's pics and events.
