Freedom riders from Minnesota and Washington are keeping on-line journals - check them out. There are pictures too. We created a song for our bus called "Perigrinos De La Libertad". Our group is in very high spirits and I saw the passion of their beliefs in their faces as they sang the song. Our first stop for the day was in Rupert, ID. We pulled into Rupert Town Square and saw many people setting up lunch for us as we got out of the bus. Children from the elementary school sang songs. A speaker told about the man that was shot in the back by the INS about a year ago in Rupert. He is survived by a wife and young child. As we left the park many people came and wished us the best and sent their prayers. We are getting many prayers for our safety.....It makes me realize the hopes that many people have for the for the success of the Freedom Ride.
