We marched in the drizzle and enjoyed it so much that we’re going to march again this Saturday, May 9.
Fifty people showed up in the light rain and we walked from 1st Ave. S at the foot of the Woodland Street Bridge, past the courthouse, down 2nd Ave, up Broadway to 5th Ave N. We crossed the street and marched back to the starting point. It took less than an hour and we got lots of support from passers-by.
So, unless it is pouring down rain, we’ll do it again at 12 noon.
There is plenty of free parking at the corner of First Avenue North and Woodland Street. And, if you’ve got a drum or percussion instrument, please bring it with you. See you Saturday!

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
I missed the first one, but I will be at the second one. I know there are more than fifty people… hell, I know fifty people…
See you on Saturday!
