Augusta!




We arrived in Augusta early enough to enjoy the beautiful whether outside of the Unitarian Universalist church the Central Savannah River Area Peace Alliance had secured as a venue for our stop. The crowd was a small one but Doug, Zack, and Jason all gave deeply personal, moving accounts on their experiences in Iraq. Most in the crowd had just participated in a film screening of, “Iraq For Sale” before the speaking event so there were lots of questions about contractors and war profiteering.
After the event Ayman bought us dinner and provided hospitality that’s just second to none! That evening some of us got to use an indoor water treadmill!! We were also treated to a screening of Will Ferrels, “Farwell to Bush” thing. Thanks CSRA Peace alliance, Ayman, and Joey!!
