I was part of the "Signs of Fascism" event in Nashua today. We got a lot of supportive honks and waves, but the best was an elderly man who smiled and waved when he was stopped at the light. His license plate said, I kid you not, "D-DAY" as the one holding the sign that said "Our grandfathers fought fascism, will you?" That felt super poignant.

We had 2 high schoolers show up at our huddle on their motorcycles and they bragged they were part of the Nashua North and South walk out. We gave them our card and may join us on the bridge in the future.

Had to run a quick errand in between board meetings for another org and saw Exit 7 out!!

Here is a great measure of success -- A teenager in Merrimack was driving thru Nashua Sunday and saw all 3 signs and messaged me that he was soo uplifted and jazzed!!

THE POWER OF ONE - At a planning meeting this morning a person told me that when they were driving through the Franconia area a while ago, they saw one person on a bridge with a sign and they decided at that moment that if they could, they were going to do that too. 

The amazing power of one.

That is a great reminder. I was on my bridge solo for a few weeks before others were sent to me. And now I have 15-20 people that are regulars.

What a day on the Bridge today @ Delta!  We had a new person join us (under 25!!) and a funny moment when I recruited a young fella who I “ thought” was a new member - helped us put up our signage and then said “ nice chatting”. I looked puzzled I'm assuming when he sort of chuckled and said, thanks for all you do but I was just out for a walk!
