Lake City Pioneer Days was a blast!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth at the Lake City Pioneer Days! It was a great day filled with great people.

I got there at 8:30am on my bike, and Peter had just finished unloading his car into our spot. This consisted of a table and umbrella, with two chairs. Peter then made a second trip over to Barbara's for a cooler of water and the 46dems A-Frame. We set out all the literature that Peter and I had left, and then Shanna stopped by with a full case load of lit from their place. We spent until 7:30 talking to the people walking by about the candidates that we endorsed, and we had some great help. From some great candidates!

David Bloom stopped by early, and stayed most of the day. He also stopped by at the end of the day to take back all of his literature. Bobby Forch came by around noon and stayed for most of the rest of the day. Both of these candidates were talking to people and handing out their own literature as well as the Sample Ballot from the 46th District. What great team players! A group of people campaigning for Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels stopped by to say hello. Seattle Mayor candidate James Donaldson was going from booth to booth. King County Assessor candidate Lloyd Hara was there near the end of the day after going to two other events. Port of Seattle candidate Rob Holland came by after the parade to pick up his literature, and it looked like he needed it because he was down to white fliers from a photocopier. And King County Councilman and Exec candidate Dow Constantine came by with about four other people carrying signs at the very end, just as I was leaving.

What a great day! You can see the two pictures taken of the booth, with myself, Peter and Sarajane on our Slideshow page.
