We found a nice shady spot right in front of Miss Porter's School. Exchange Club members passed out flags to the bystanders.
It's such a sweet little parade with veterans, Scouts, and local school bands marching. We joined the other bystanders in applauding as the veterans marched by so I didn't take any photos of them. There were quite a few from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, complete with a Humvee.
This antique fire engine is from the firehouse down the hill from where we live.
The highlight of any parade for Ross was always the fire engines. Mark and I realized that if there was a true emergency in town during the parade, all the police, rescue, fire trucks and personnel are in the parade!
This is a part of the FIRST Robotics Team contingent. Dawn and Ross used to march too.
On the way back to our car, we passed this beautiful rosebush in full bloom.
Remembering the sacrifices our countrymen and women have made to secure our freedom and way of life
