There were wonderful pipes and drums, and the Horace Greeley High School band played flawlessly. Girl Scouts of Troop 120 placed the wreath. It was great to see girls doing it. There were many, many dogs, some with flag bandanas, and all were well-behaved throughout.
One special doggie I finally got to meet was Maggie Mae, Pup Reporter, who writes a pet column for Grace Bennett's Inside Chappaqua Magazine. Maggie's mom, Ronni Diamondstein has written an article featuring this blog for the June issue.
Ronni and her canine cub reporter had their picture taken with Hillary. It was very hard to get close, but I cropped a few where you can see Ronni and Hillary. In one shot, you can also see Maggie Mae.
I want to thank especially Rumana Alvi, Sharon Yarborough, and Rosemary Rowlands (who had her picture taken with Hillary) for sharing their images with me. It was a wonderful day, and yes, I did get to talk with Hillary. No, it was not about 2016. Sorry, but as I have said here often, that is the best way to waste your two minutes with Hillary Rodham Clinton. What a beautiful day with a beautiful lady and her loyalists in her hometown!
I would like to thank Mme. Secretary for her kindness and patience taking time to meet me. She is most gracious and generous. One thing I forgot to ask - I was so blown away by her kind attention - was how I could get her press releases.
On with the show!
