Everyday is a good day on The Croft...

Occupy

The "Occupy" movement has pretty much taken over anyplace that's someplace.  We have our own "Occupy" movement here on the Croft.  It's called "Occupy Tom's Lap". Lady is protesting something (we're not sure exactly what) and keeps occupying Tom's lap.  Or mine. Or the lap of anyone who might care.
Lady at "Occupy Tom's Lap"  The protests are getting intense.

But, seriously, we DID check out "Occupy Boise".  Our friend, Troy, decided to set up a 'tent' and serve hot chocolate  and the Word to the Occupiers protesting in Boise.  A bunch of us went with him and effectively took our Bible study group to downtown Boise.  We did some sharing, and listening and cocoa drinking with the folks we met and had a surprisingly wonderful time.  Here are some pics from our adventure...

Setting up 'camp'.  Tom on the left.

Hoyt, Molly and Jodi. Hoyt looks like he's undercover.

Okay...so where's Brenda?

Our Organizer

Cold. Very Cold.  When we packed up our bags and left  California last June, it never occurred to me that I'd be listening to Union Organizers on the front steps of the Ada County courthouse on a COLD November day.  Sometimes I surprise myself.


What did YOU do last Sunday afternoon?
