May Day Immigration Marches

I wasn't going to blog on this, but the fact that I am unable to get to work, leaves me with a bit of time on my hands!

The 4:00 p.m. march, with the mayor (Los Angeles) giving a pep talk, ends at my back yard, so to speak. The closing down of streets in my neighborhood (La Brea and Wilshire Blvd.) was supposed to start around 4:00 p.m., but the traffic started being routed this morning, leaving me stranded at the bus stop on Wilshire! I actually ran after some of the buses being rerouted on La Brea, to no avail, and after sweating like a pig, walked home.

It will be interesting to see how many people end up here this afternoon. I'll be doing some live blogging as the afternoon progresses.

Stay tuned.
