*WED OCT 29* *All Saints Episc Ch, Frederick to Little Bennett Reg’l Park, Clarksburg, MD* A meal-prep crew has been hired to prepare meals for us as we approach WDC. They will use all of the March’s food and equipment so we will be able to return the kitchen truck to Avis Rental on Oct 31. We expect to get to Bethesda tomorrow, Oct 30 and stay for 2 days to get the transition—belongings out of the gear truck for those who plan to stay in WDC the following week, and get the gear truck prepared to make its trip back to Des Moines. I arrived at camp at 11:30am. Since the back of the seat frame on my recumbent had broken I borrowed JJ’s bike. I misjudged a curb. The front tire didn’t go over the curb and I skidded and fell off in the direction I was headed. I got several scratches on my hands and face. When Kim arrived she helped me dress the wounds. There was an All-camp meeting to discuss the plans for the Nov 1st March from Bethesda to WDC and plans for the following week. Ed and the Board of Directors have stated that the Great March concludes on Nov 1. Some of the Marchers were not happy with that decision. They think the March should be extended to the week after we arrive in WDC. And some of those have proposed a week of civil disobedience. I remember the initial registration form for the March indicated that the March would not participate in civil disobedience. Ed has been absent from the March for at least 3 days. I’m assuming that the planning didn’t go the way he thought it should go and people weren’t listening to him. We assume that he will be on the March Nov 1 to WDC and make one of the presentations at Lafayette Park. The discussion was interrupted for dinner, and then continued into the night. -- Peace, David
