Tonight: An Estimated 1500 to Rally in Downtown Portland

Early estimations say that there could be upwards of 1500 people filling Terry Shrunk Plaza at 5:30 tonight - all rallying for equality. As most of you know Friday is the federal court hearing on Oregon's Domestic Partnership law. We probably won't know the fate of the law on Friday as the judge is expected to take some time to make his ruling. Possibly a few weeks.

After all of my encouraging people to attend, letter writing, etc., I am home sick. And I still was going to come...but my better half and smart sense told me not too. I am so bummed out. But, you can bet, I'll be there in spirit. Lots of spirit.
