However the city of Ocala, which is about 30 miles away, but our biggest city nearby, has a wonderful Veteran's Memorial Park, and they had activities all weekend long, including the traveling Vietnam memorial Wall. We passed by there on our way to visit my MIL at the nursing home, and I didn't realize that the "wall" was there until later. Wish I'd known, as I would have loved to have seen it. Pamela M.

I would loved to have seen this, Annie. There is always a parade and dedications at the war memorial. The parade isn't as big as the July 4th or St. Patrick' day ones though. Hope you had a lovely day, my friend. smilesLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16466115918585699329noreply@blogger.com
