We were shocked that Bernie came to our sparsely populated Central Coast. It was an honor. I arrived before 7 am with two others. They let us in early, and I was in the front right at the barricade near the podium! However, I stood in the burning sun (there was a nice cool breeze so it wasn't unpleasant) for nearly 9 hours by the time I left, received a blistering sun burn (burning for Bernie) but it was so worth it.
