Memorial Day Parade - 2013

Penulis : Admin Ashish Chaturevdi on Monday, 10 June 2013 | 18:30

 Here's some of the pictures i took at this year's Memorial Day Parade.  In case you don't know the history, here's pictures from years 2012 and 2010.
I've been seeing a lot of the same people, in the same place, acting the same way since 2007. 
Here's what i mean.

Here's some people who sit down by the river.  These were taken in 2008-2010.

This was from last year in 2012.
2010 parade people

And now this year sitting in the same spot.  If the people around the guy weren't wearing different clothes you might think i was kidding that these were taken a year apart.  Same green shirt, same white socks, same sunglasses and same cigarette pack in the pocket.
funny people at the parade

Here's another family that also sits down by the river.  2007-2010.

And 2013

They are wearing matching shirts as well.

This guy is one of my favorites.  It's funny but until last year i hadn't realized that i had taken his picture every year since 2008.  When i looked back i was amazed that he was sitting the same way in front of his house.
lonely man

This was last year in 2012.

Now in 2013.  Back to the red shirt, but staying on the porch.  And looks like he finally got rid of the old computer monitor.

3-peat winner back in 2010 for the happiest cop.
worlds best cop

In 2012 he went 4 years in a row.

who is the oldest cop, police officer

2013.  No Sunglasses.  Fifth year in a row, no problem.
safety cop, police

I didn't realize i had taken this picture until this year.  Looking back at some pictures i took in 2007 i noticed this group of people.
typical family

The reason i didn't notice them is because the one guy usually is only wearing cut-off jean shorts.  Here's the group in 2009-2010
shirtless and drunk

Last year was the same thing.  2012
fun in the sun

And this year he was still easy to spot.  Although he did have his shirt on.

You might remember this dog from 2012.  It had the little polka-dot coat and it's claws painted pink.

Well that poor dog is forced into wearing that same coat this year.
