A small group gathered at Snow City Cafe and Elderberry Park for the walk for climate change. (I made the mistake of thinking it was at Snow Goose Cafe and stood at the trailhead by myself for 15 minutes before finding the group a few blocks ahead).
They finally gathered downtown and made their presence known, even if it was only for a short while.
