June 14, 2025
A few days ago, as we headed down the Oregon coast, we stopped in a small city called Astoria. We soon realized that the people gathered on the sidewalks along the main drag were a No Kings protests.
We live close to Washington, DC so we’ve been to a few protests since 2017. We had hoped to participated in the June 14 demonstrations, but we’re on the road. How nice it was to find a like-minded group on the way.
We had no signs but we had our voices! A nice person was handing out small flags and we made good use of them.
Two hours later, we were a bit hoarse but were so glad to participate. Our country is worth saving from the cult that has overrun it.
