Flag Retreat, 1950's


In honor of the 4th of July, I chose this lovely image of the flag retreat in Main Street's Town Square. There's Vesey Walker in his white bandleader's uniform. Main Street itself really comes to life when all of the twinkling lights come on...I can almost hear the music and smell the popcorn. Perhaps this photo was taken in the fall or winter when it gets dark earlier...I also wonder why it appears that one of the glass globes on the light fixture to the right seems to be missing! Pesky teenagers I'll bet. Why don't they get haircuts! Anyway, happy 4th of July, everybody.

Great shot from the Main Street station. They now perform the flag retreat ceremony so early in the day you can no longer get an image like this.
