On October 17, 2010 Static Salon and Friends joined 30,000 other people for a little walk around the streets of LA to raise money and fight against AIDS.
Along the way we saw others just as passionate as we were to be walking on this most incredible day. The energy that was created by 30,000 people of all ages was unlike anything that could possibly been imagined. 
No one walking knew the where the other 30,000 walkers were from, what there background was, what kind of a house they lived in or how much money they made annually. 
But we all, for one afternoon were connected by something that matter more than all that stuff. We were all out, walking in the rain for 6 miles, to fight for people that we may never meet or know. We were fighting for others to live a longer life, we were fighting for health, we were fighting for loved ones living with this disease and in honor of loved ones that have passed on. We were walking because we believed in something greater than ourselves. In one afternoon 30,000 Los Angelenos' hearts came together for one great cause and in the grand scheme of life...there is nothing more special or more moving than one giant group coming together in LOVE. 
Along the way...we had fun too! 
We posed for pictures
We cheered with the crowd
We smiled the entire time
We drank lots of water
We joked around and connected with each other
We remembered how much we love each other
We totally bonded
We showed pride for our team
Along the way...a little piece of us changed. We became just a little bit better people. Thanks AIDS Walk! We had a blast.
