My wife, daughter and I participated in this in Atchison KS this weekend. It was a very good experience. It was our first time participating. For me it was a bit of an eye opening experience. Many, many people waved, honked and gave us a thumbs up. Some simply drove by while staring straight ahead. Only one person was verbally abusive.
