Memorial Day 2013


The lovely couple above have been married for 61 years, since shortly after he returned from the Korean War. I’m sure I heard them telling someone else that they have a child celebrating a 41st wedding anniversary.

I see this vehicle in the parade every year.




Happy faces. Waiting for the start of the 2013 Memorial Day Parade in Corning NY.




Color Guard practice.


























Randy drove the Hokey Pokey truck in the parade, as usual. This year, however, Lorraine and their granddaughter walked in front of the truck adding a special touch to the occasion.




From a walk down Market Street, earlier in the day.







Market Street’s newest business.




Finally ~ I was taking a Sunday morning walk along the river (which is off to the right in this photo) and spotted this couple soaking up the sun and fresh air. In a brief conversation, they revealed that they were listening to a church sermon online.
