Vigil Pleasant Hill
About 400 were there and it was beautiful. We sang and lit candles. One man talked about his son, one woman talked about her daughter both in Iraq and they taped up a list of all the the people who died there and I almost cried. ABC news helicopter was there right above us and lots of cars honked in support.

My husband who drives BART saw the Rockridge vigil from his train and blew the train whistle in support and they all waved at him!
