I was cheered up today [View all]

We took our son, his gf, and our grandson (18 mos) to a Fall Festival near here. We live in a reddish part of Bucks Co. PA, and I hesitated before putting on my Kamala t-shirt. Then I thought to myself (and announced to my husband) that I was sure we were going to see lots of red caps, so screw it.

I am overjoyed to report that I did not see *one* MAGA cap, t-shirt, or any other political paraphernalia at this event, which had hundreds of people in attendance. Additionally, the diversity of the people there was so heartening, I actually felt hopeful about our county's performance on election day. There were families of every color; I caught at least four different languages being spoken, there were women in hijabs--it was truly wonderful. Plus the kid had a great time.
