Victory Garden movement

The cities will be part of the country; I shall live 30 miles from my office in one direction, under a pine tree; my secretary will live 30 miles away from it too, in the other direction, under another pine tree. We shall both have our own car. We shall use up tires, wear out road surfaces and gears, consume oil and gasoline. All of which will necessitate a great deal of work. . . enough for all.

EAST MEET WEST INTERCHANGE OVERPASS PARADE - the score:
Two parades will become one on an Indianapolis interchange overpass. Participants and viewers representing the EAST and WEST of Indianapolis, Indiana, the United States and the world will converge on each other visible to the speeding traffic below. The parade will begin as easterns and westerns assemble on either side and will end as they gradually drift away from the mash-up on the overpass.

1. A north-south line is struck where the Interstate 70 meets Interstate 65 at the Virginia Ave. overpass in Indianapolis.

2. All parade participants from the west side of that line will assemble at the intersection of East Street & Virginia Avenue.

3. All parade participants from the east side of that line will assemble at the intersection of Shelby Street & Virginia Avenue.

4. Those residing west of that line coming to view the event will assemble along Virginia Ave. west of the overpass.

5. Those residing east of that line coming to view the event will assemble along Virginia Ave. east of the overpass.

6. At noon on Saturday, April 26th, the two parade groups will proceed on the right lane of Virginia Avenue heading towards each other.

7. As each parade passes, the assembled viewers along Virginia Avenue will fall in line behind.

8. The two parades will pass each other on either side of the overpass, the following viewers may assemble in the center of the overpass, or wherever they are comfortable.

9. The east marching westside parade (visible to cars on the northbound Interstate) may make a u-turn as it reaches the east end of the overpass, continue straight ahead to the beginning point of the other parade or dissolve into a mash-up of east, west and audience on the overpass.

10. The west marching eastside parade (visible to cars on the southbound Interstate) may make a u-turn as it reaches the east end of the overpass, continue straight ahead to the beginning point of the other parade or dissolve into a mash-up of east, west and audience on the overpass

11. Folding in on itself parts of the two parades may pass each other, combine as one infinite circular parade, or collapse into one mass where the lines between east and west, performers and audience disolves.

12. The parade will end gradually as participants, marchers and audience slowly drift away and head back to the museum....
