1. I would love to go to this

I think I am coming down for Easter at Camp Casey. But it will be a day's drive, a day at CC and then a day driving home. I can't get down there by Thursday night for this dinner.

3. I think most of the people who will be at the dinner will also be at

Camp Casey for Easter, so you'll get to mingle anyway.
OT: How are you? And your trip to Crawford sounds brutal travelwise.

7. I'm tired today

We had a state Dem event in Topeka so I was there from Friday night until late last night. I feel like I have had no weekend. I decided to skip our protest today and just lounge.

So are you coming to Crawford at Easter? I really think I will come down for the day. I have Good Friday off so I have the time.
