The 50th Anniversary March on Washington

On July 26th before for Ottawa on the 30th, I receive an email from my friend Don stating YOUR BUS RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED. I thought either his email had been hacked or it was a prank. No, it was true. Further, it read: YOU ARE CONFIRMED ON THE Chicago Chapter CBTU bus to the Commemorative March on Washington 08/24/13. WE WILL PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION, FOOD AND SNACKS ON THE BUS. The plans are to leave 08/23/13, Friday evening from 87th and Wentworth Shopping mall at 5:00pm in time to join with others for the Demonstration on Saturday morning 08/24/13. Following the event participants will retire to minimal charge housing listed below(at the participant's expense). Sunday morning 08/25/13 the return trip home begins.

I let Don know, I would already be in MD that day and had recently made a plane reservation to return home the evening of the 24th. After several conversations back and forth, Marsha and I agreed to participate in the walk on the 24th with Don's group so I would change my return travel plans to RETURN ON THE FREE BUS on Sunday the 25th.
