I'm on vacation in Maine. In two days of cordial chatting with strangers, I have discovered several Ridin' with Biden folks. We don't start with politics, but with talking about seasonal staff (energetic and friendly immigrants), or National Parks (yes, thank you), or family sizes ("My grandmother had 22 kids!) and segue into the election and keeping Trump the hell away from Washington DC. Use a back door if you have to, but TALK!

To be clear, the poor Grandma was a brood mare and none too happy about it. Her granddaughter shared that info by explaining her license plate: "Dad and I." "He was the end of 22 kids and had a shit upbringing. We're pretty close." She's a heavy truck operator and trainer - a fabulous badass - and Dad is mighty proud of her.
