Same here. I went to a street corner with just one friend and our signs and a flag. Neighbors heard the cars honking and joined us with candles. Another neighbor drove by and saw us and joined in, too. We were a baker’s dozen by twilight. Meanwhile, a huge crowd gathered in San Francisco.
Two kids about 10 and 12 and their dad are  holding candles while a neighbor in a wheelchair holds a sign.

And there’s this poem from Emily Dickinson:
These Strangers, in a foreign World,
Protection asked of me -
Befriend them, lest Yourself in Heaven 
Be found a Refugee -

This sign is my current favorite, a model of the good ship Constitutionmade by a teacher in Maine. One of the first ships in the US Navy, she’s still afloat in Boston harbor and open to visitors when the government is working.
This is a cardboard model of the ship, the USS constitution complete with three masts and a full set of fabric sales

My favorite sign (so far!) for the No Kings protests tomorrow, made by a music teacher in Maine who is also a sailor. I got to visit the real USS Constitution on a junior high field trip. She’s still afloat, but currently closed to visitors because of the shutdown.
This is a cardboard model of the USS Constitution, with 3 masts, and a complete set of fabric sails.
