Memorial Day Parade in Suffield

We've been going to Suffield's Memorial Day Parade for almost 20 years. It is a typical "small town America" parade. It has remained pretty much the same ever since we started going to it. We had perfect weather and a wonderful time!




Robb and the boys wait for the parade to begin.




Suffield veterans walk behind the riderless horse to start the parade.



The Suffield High School Band. (I told you this was "small town America!" - It's a pretty small high school.)



The best part for the boys is when the Little Leaguers walk by and throw candy. There's a mad scramble for it!



Robb and the boys pose by the "riderless horse."



A ceremony takes place by the statue.



The "backwards" boot represents the fallen soldiers.
