Signs we can sit on and Hi Fidelity Q&A today, American Legion tomorrow

I spent this morning in Mill Creek Park in South Portland painting a couple of signs we can sit on to place around town. They’ll have to be taken down in six weeks, but they’re a good example of the sort of helpfulness it’s possible to achieve with very little organizing, and I will organize another painting party as that deadline approaches. The City actually reached out to me and asked me not to put them around, but then I went past a sign for one of the District Attorney candidates that was bigger and more obnoxious in every single way than what I was doing so I decided that if the law was good enough for the attorneys then it’s good enough for me. All this wasn’t a campaign event but it was very enjoyable.

This evening I was at Hi Fidelity Brewing Company as promised, and had some quite in-depth conversations! Thank you to Dante both for hosting and for quoting from your pocket constitution as needed. We didn’t get the food pantry contributions I was hoping for so I bought a bowl of rice and beans for the bar’s pass-it-forward board, and hopefully someone finds it when they need it.

Tomorrow I will be back in my old stomping grounds yet again for another Q&A at the American Legion on Broadway, and then in the following evenings I will be out canvassing in Sanford, Biddeford, and Rockland.

All this to say I am still in need of about 15 more friends and helpers to actually make the deadline by the end of next weekend, so if there’s anybody you’ve been hiding up your sleeve, any person who hasn’t been told: today would be an excellent day to reach out to them.

See you all out there!
