Picketing in Madison

On Saturday, February 26th Mona and I went down to Madison to support the Wisconsin Public Workers. I had received a call from APWU National Postal Press Association President, Tony Carobine the preceding day inquiring as to whether Mona and I would like to join him and his wife in the adventure.

An adventure it was. There were between 70,000 and 100,000 people filling the sidewalks, the lawn, the streets and the Capital building itself. It was an experience I’ll never forget.
