Last nite we made it to the first rest stop upon
entering Arizona- yeah - almost home! We spent the day today in Tucson, which
was awesome! Driving into Tucson, our poll was 8 to 1 in favor of us, against
bush. Not to dis the cnn polls, we're on top of the opinions of everyday,
common u.s.ofa. random citizens who happen to be driving along the same time we
are. Now who has the more accurate polls, I ask you?
Tucson folks were thrilled to see us - almost
everyone had heard of codePINK - there's a new codePINK forming in Tucson also,
altho the 2 wimmin we had as contacts were both out of town today - bummer. We
talked with many people from all walks of life - all unanimously agreed george
bush has GOT to go and we're going do it! Driving thru Tucson, many people
yelled their support from the streets, many honked while passing, and many just
smiled broadly and waved.
We pulled into a coffee shop on our way outta town
to find a live band playing. The womon who had the mike made everyone look out
the window at the truck, saying how much she loved it! The band then played a
song dedicated to us "Any Body But Bush" as all the patrons sang
loudly and joyfully along! That was a very special send-off to California!
Again we drove until we found a rest stop to sleep as close as we could make it to Yuma,
Arizona, the last city in Arizona on the California border!
