Just wanted to report in, went to Baltimore for the Bernie march on Saturday

Good turnout (they estimated 1K or more. Would have been more I think if it hadn't been raining and soooo cold). Ended up arriving a bit late due to traffic and all. I'd say when walking the march stretched about 2 city blocks long. My daughter and I decided to stick around and see a few things and went to see the Ringling circus before heading home (cross that off my bucket list). I was contemplating if I should keep my Bernie shirt on or if it might cause an issue. Glad to say though that I kept it on and there were SEVERAL people who stopped me or came up to me while I was seated to ask about Bernie, tell me they liked my shirt and ask where I got it, or just to tell me they're "Feelin' the Bern" too! It was a mix of arena staff, circus staff and audience, so kinda cool.

Glad we went! Planning on attending others if they are in driving distance.

Do we know how Bernie's polling in MD.?

Thanks for the report! It's always nice to hear how he's doing in other states.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

Didn't see myself but I think one of my friends shows up on the sidewalk during one of the interviews. There were a lot of people there.
