can we figure out some sort of DU location? |
|
at the Capitol on Saturday? Maybe just a sort of "rallying point" at various times throughout the day? Nothing official, but it would be nice to march with DU'ers, ya know?
Any ideas?

4. I will add a DU bumper sticker to my sign (contents TBD) - say hello of you see me. |
|
If a designated spot is determined to meet, someone can Tweet me - @PeaceNikki.

10. I plan to be there in time to see the tractorcade |
|
MadAsHell and I haven't had a chance yet and, oncoming cold be damned, I'm going.
I don't know if I'll have a sign, but if I do, it will have a DU bumpersticker on it.
That said, I'm hoping there will be so many people we'll never see each other randomly.

13. Yeah, I haven't checked the weather lately, but I knew it was coming |
|
I saw on the weather channel last Monday that they were predicing snow for Sat. They were wrong on every other stinking day this week and changed their forecast - except for tomorrow.
Why does that have to be the on day they got right?

15. it's supposed to be windy mid-day, too |
|
so "smaller signs" are easier to handle.

16. ok - so how about this... |
|
on the 30's of the hour . . .
Du'ers in the vicinity of the side of the Capitol facing Lake Monona & Monona Terrace & MLK Blvd (there's Starbucks on that street corner) - and closer to the Capitol itself, not near the road/sidewalk** - can maybe hang out for a few minutes and make some connections.
I'd say starting at a particular "time" but I'm not sure exactly what time I myself will get there - I'm not a very good "morning person" - so I'll commit to 12:30, but if others want to speak up and claim to be there at earlier times, then go for it.
It's pretty informal, but I guess it's better than nothing. I've spent several Saturdays looking around and wondering - "is that a DU'er?" "I wonder if that person DU's?
**(It's kinda hard to explain if you've never been there. There's the Capitol with a "walkway around it" - then an expanse of lawn, a sidewalk and the road. And it is a "square". So I'm saying not the sidewalk next to the road, but the walkway next to the Capitol itself. If that makes any sense... others with a better way of explaining - or a better idea, please speak up!!)
I'll probably be wearing a red shawl/scarf thingie...
