Memorial Day Parade

I like parades.  Monday's Memorial Day parade in Ridgefield was fun. 


Ridgefield has a Colonial tavern.  Some folks from the tavern rode in a truck and posed in period garb.


The Lions Club had a lion atop a truck.


We got an enthusiastic greeting from one of the granddaughters riding with the swim team.


Nine girls.  Nine expressions.




One serious young man held his sign, "Happy Soldiers Day, Memorial Day! ♡Thomas."


Senator Richard Blumenthal walked with Ridgefield first selectman, Rudy Marconi.  The governor also walked, but I didn't spot him until he was past.


I loved the idea of a grandson accompanying the Pipe Major.

The blaring from many fire trucks made for a noisy parade.
