Today’s date will always stand out in my mind, and I hope that everyone will take time to reflect on what happened 6 years ago and put into perspective what really matters in life.

You just know that Mildred is looking for her lighter...dagnabbit where is that durn thing? Ah forget it...we’ll just watch the parade. Slide 2 is most likely these gents warming up for a few bars of “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.”
These heralder’s uniforms are still being used in the Candlelight Processional, albeit with a few modifications:

Hey Brian - thanks for identifying the goose. It still freaks me out though! Thanks for the link to the 1972 parade - very cool.
