Veterans For Peace National Convention

In Portland, Oregon for the VFP national convention--my first ever. Like most affairs of this sort, it's a whirlwind of panels, people and learning an entirely new venue. Today's events included a session on organizing and one on Peace Trees Vietnam. Tomorrow I am leading a panel on veterans advocacy.

Since all this is fairly esoteric and heavy, here's a photo from my recent trip to Mount Rainier. And, yes, all that snow was still on the ground at the end of July.
