No Kings #3

It was a cold, windy day, but even more folks showed up at our local, third No Kings protest. Sylvia picked me up, and we brought our seating along with our signs. 

A  friend took our picture. 
JM and Sylvia.

Our friend Susan was helping out, leading the chants up and down the roadway...

Advice that Abigail Adams gave to her 11-year-old son, John Quincy, in the midst of the Revolution:

“These are the times in which a genius would wish to live. It is not in the still calm of life or the repose of a pacific station that great characters are formed. The habits of a vigorous mind are formed in contending with difficulties. Great necessities call out great virtues.”
