Last photos from the Memorial Day Parade in Orange. The parade culminates at the Orange Cemetery with Veteran's holding a short service of commemoration. It's always quite moving with taps and a gun salute. It's remarkable how few people stick around for the service since that's the reason for the day.
Yeah. Sometimes I think Americans feel it is "un-American" to be somber and serious about anything.
ReplyDeleteSo true Dina. Hotdogs and parades seem to be the norm for this holiday.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget a full Pipe Band playing Amazing Grace too.
