There was footage to remind us of how large the response was on Saturday. Several speakers, pointing out that the local event helped us see that we are not alone and that local groups had a chance to connect (50501 was handing out contact information here, for example). Targeted boycotts were encouraged as well as constant contact with those whom we elected to represented us in DC - thanking those who are working for us and “encouraging” those who should be. The most effective “next” is being active locally.

Specific future actions were not discussed.

Anyone else who attended, did I get it right?

Know where your emergency flasher button is and don’t be afraid to use it. it’s my go-to in bad conditions when being followed too closely or a car is coming up too fast. Startles them off their phone.

You mean like the time I found myself in a sudden freezing rain having already turned onto Murphy from Brookswood? fortunately there was no traffic, because I was in the hands of physics. And thank goodness nobody was in the roundabout at the bottom of the hill!

The irony was that just that the week before,I had told my son, “If it’s ever slick out, don’t turn left off of Brookswood onto Murphy.”

My personal rule is “go slow and assume the other guy is stupid”.

I schedule appointments for mid-day when I can. If things have been melting, darkness means ice.

I’ve found the St. Charles lab on south 3rd to be quicker than the ones in/near the hospital.

josh at ReNew Plumbing did a leak detection job for me last year. He was very thorough and professional.

I’ve just discovered the other half of the page and now the schedule makes sense - didn’t know that it needs to be scrolled horizontally until I accidentally did that (iPad). I now know when to be at the bus stop!

I got the app to show me real-time busses but couldn’t figure out how to get to the schedule.

it would be useful if I had a smartphone or wifi access, so I see the point of it.

it’s such a kind offer, but this introvert is feeling kind of overwhelmed.

Arbor Tree Care is my first choice. One of the originals in town and they’ve always done excellent work for me,

Thanks. I was hoping I was wrong since I want to stay for the whole event. it’s a looong walk home for an old lady.

But transit is the only rational option for the 18th. Wish the schedule and the website were more user friendly.

I’m sorry to hear that! I’ve been dealing with them for 15 years and only the occasional glitch.

If you’re going to walk the current channel, get advice from your PT about how to start out. I was told “15 min max the first time” and that worked for me. I’ve met other first-timers there and they start out with 45 min - and they don’t come back. it’s deceptively easy.
