Vigil Counts, Let's Check In !
Just got back from the vigil in Belfast Maine.

About 75 people attended, in a town of 6500.

There were also vigils in Camden, Rockland and other towns in the area.
We had plenty of great response, lots of horns honking, and people coming in and out of the restaurants and theater giving us support, and not one single negative response

4. 'Nother Mainer here.
i just got back from Freeport. About 130 people. Young & old. A few yahoo good ole boys, but nothing that was really offensive. There were more peace signs & thumbs up than anything else.
