We arrived at 12th and Constitution at 2PM set up Freeper camp and then took shifts watching the kids in the Smithsonian. The crowd slowly grew until it was 10-15 people deep all along the procession route. All in attendance were polite, somber and super patriotic. Enjoy the photos.

I love photos like this. Gives a real sense of being there. And the photo of the riderless horse is terrific.

These pictures are fantastic! Almost like being there, except without the heat.
Thanks for the pings.

And see, I saw the tossing his head as being proud. It seemed fitting to me:') These are wonderful pictures but this one and another I saw elsewhere where RR is leaving a media room from the WH impressed me the most. It was kind of dark and he was headed towards the light and had his hand raised in a good bye or farewell gesture.

When my mare does that, I fuss at her and slap her neck. It's a resistance move, and I try to nip all insubordination in the bud.

Sergeant York is reacting to the hand on his bit by flipping his head back. I would rather see him arch his neck and prance if he's feeling a bit frisky, I hate to see such a handsome guy with his neck inverted. But maybe his handler had just popped him for being bad . . .

The military rules do prescribe that the leading hand be six inches from the bit, and I think Sergeant York would be a little less fractious with the leading hand a little further away. Maybe draw reins or a German martingale?

All that said, it's a long march in hot weather on hard pavement for a spirited horse, and it was probably just a moment of mild protest along the way.

Still a moving moment in time don't you think? Esp with the boots.

Thank you so much for the pics. It means a lot to those of us who couldn't be there or see it on the tube. What a treasure you have captured! The pic of Nancy in the limo is very special, too.

(--and easily the best capture of the caparisoned horse I've seen.)

Thanks again!
