STRUTTING THEIR STUFF

   It was hard to tell it was Veteran's Day in Coconut Grove.  It seemed like your average Saturday  then I heard the cadence of distant drums.  I jumped on my bike and headed their way.

   I came upon the annual West Grove parade honoring our country's soldiers.  It is an unusual procession as there are always more people marching (sixty or so) than watching.  I waved at the two politicians, the army guys on the firetruck, and the twenty kids in the Richmond Heights Middle School Marching Band.   

That was it,  a small but important gesture on Grand Avenue today.
