A small crowd showed up at Sequim's main intersection last night in support of the Women's March on Washington. I estimate it was >50 <100, but a good turnout considering the event was publicized by word of mouth and Sequim is largely pro Trump. What luck, eh? We moved to WA looking forward to living in a blue state after so many years in AK and AZ, and ended up in a conservative area. Oh well. This event was a gathering more than a protest. No permit was acquired so signs were forbidden (hurrah to the two women who bucked the rules) as was marching and chanting. Some of us wore pink pussy hats to signify our purpose (thanks to the generosity of the woman who sewed a bunch and handed them out), we waved our candles at passing cars and let out cheers when supporters honked, laughed at the ones who flipped us off, and it was mostly quiet fun with like-minded souls for an hour.
