Memorial Day Parade and Celebration

Our second neighbor friend when we moved to Ohio.  She came riding her bike down to the house and proceeded to tell me her life story. And now she is in High School...and she still comes by to chat.

Our Den leader and his son having their turn at carrying the Pack flag.

The Amicon's supplying water to the parade participants.  Michael says Luke saved his life!

Michael has a turn holding the banner.

Almost to the end.

This gentleman is headed back to Iraq for his third tour.

He made it from beginning to end!

Little Miss Poppy and her court lay a wreath at the foot of the flag.  During the parade, Little Miss Poppy was waving for all she was worth in her pretty white fancy dress...'Princess Poppy says Heelllloooooo'.  You had to have been there for it to be funny.

Ebon, from American Idol,  reads a tribute to a veteran he once met and then he sang.

A perfectly times fly over

Taps from far away was being played.

21 gun salute
