up at 410, danced by 610. sun came up. job done. Not necessarily well done, as it rained a little later on, but we blame the guys on the team who left early and didn't stay with us all day into our 3rd stand in Silver Spring.
beer was drunk.
me not so much, but still tired.
"national day of prayer" indeed - I almost think its the the evangelical-political christians trying to hijack May Day back from the Morris and Celtic traditions that originated it (hundreds of years ago, mind you) and the socialist traditions that embraced it in the 1920s.
its not going to work. Heck, in today's news, no one even mentioned it. but Morris May Day and Socialist May Day ('cause of the protests on the west coast ports that probably did much more harm than good) both got plenty of mentions around the country and world.
You don't establish a tradition by simply passing a law. really. it doesn't work that way.
