Liberty Parade and festival

Well, we didn't make the parade but we did make the festival in Loring Park. It was a small affair, occupying just a small portion of the park. But it was a high-spirited affair, with some bands, lit tables, folks decked out in colorful costumes, and a George Bush clown!

There was a large presence by Ron Paul's folks; in fact, I think they're largely the organizers. I did manage to buy from them a pocket copy of the Constitution. I've wanted one for awhile and never managed to get around to getting one. I also got two tickets to the Ron Paul rally on Tuesday for the price of $20...only slightly more than the $17.76 asking price for a single ticket!

Kind of an interesting blend of left-wing and right-wing hippies! And a beautiful day in a beautiful Minneapolis park.
