Hard to believe today is the same day I got up at 3:30 and saw the headlines and it seemed like a new world. Thought of mk during a brief layover in Detroit, trying to read expressions of Red state residents watching airport TV. The gate agents asked if we would be coming back. Then we were in a real new world. And immediately felt the refreshing absence of East Coast uptightness. People walk around in a light rain and nod and greet strangers. The flight attendant announced that the local time is "Who cares." No one rushing since we got through customs. Now CNN is showing protest crowds around the White House, where flagamuffin and I passed during a meetup last Saturday. No photos so maybe not official, but we thought thenewgreen would want to know.
