In any case, about 35 people gathered with signs and fliers. I brought a supply of foam-board, a really gigantic Marks-A-Lot marker, 130 double-sided fliers, and as much lemon-aid, Cherry Coke and Squirt as would fit in my cooler. I surrendered my sign material to those with catchy phrases in mind and opted to hand out fliers and talk to people.

I think the time was very profitable. There were a lot of pedestrians walking back to their cars. Maybe one in five would completely ignore me. The rest at least accepted a flier and read at least part of it as they continued down the street. I had one to two minute conversation with a number of people while they waited for a stop light. And five or six actually stopped to talk for a good five to ten minutes.

Here are the photos I took from the event.
