Another Prop 8 Protest

Nov 23, 2008 12:48

Dave and I were semi-crazy and decided to go up to Sacramento yesterday to protest Prop 8 at the state capitol building. It was something like a 6 hour drive each way. For those of you not in this state/country, LA is kinda at the bottom, and Sacramento is kinda near the top. It's a tall state. Heh. I'd never been to Sacramento before, so I crammed ( Read more... )

I know, right? It was really funny how different it was from here even though it's really not that far and it's the SAME state.

Thanks!

ice skating? omg! does it snow there? ::excited::

Rarely. But not far from there in the foothills, it snows regularly. It snows a darn lot closer to me than that, though. Sometimes I only have to drive for half an hour for snow. Sometimes it's closer to an hour, but it's always there all winter.

That is awesome that you went, and awesome that picture came out. I always have the same problem with flags.

I'm so glad we did go. It was a great setting for a protest. *shakes fist at flags*

Your favourite pic? Is MADE of awesome! They should print it on postcards promoting Sacramento.

Don't have time right now to watch the video, but I will. Just wanted to say, well done driving all that way to take part in the protesting!

Hahaha. They should! It was actually a much more interesting city than I thought it would be. More my speed than San Fransisco, which is a little too insane for me.

Aw, thanks, man!

Sacramento is something like 400 miles further north, so it's colder!

64 degrees F.

Bwah ha ha ha ha!!!

(very nice pics, BTW.)

Believe it or not, it's been about 20 degrees colder here until today for the last very long time. It was a nice reprieve.

Wow, those are gorgeous. I love how deep the blue is in the "Detail, yay!" pic, in contrast to the white.

And your favorite is just completely fabulous.

Thanks, yo! That's honestly the reason I took it. It was so pretty!

That means a lot coming from you.
