I was sitting in the Union Square dog park, enjoying the interactions with various breeds I was pretending were my own, when I heard a symphony of wind instruments playing "When the Saints Come Marching In." I walked over to the steps and started to watch a parade of musicians, activists holding black umbrellas, and a few people carrying a black coffin with New Orleans written on the side. Surrounding them was a procession of police officers on little motorbikes. The demonstration was a call for and end of the Bush regime and its policies. I joined in the walk around the park, snapped a few pictures on my 35 mm and enjoyed the sounds of flutes, saxophones, horns, and many an instrument I could not identify. I’m not usually a big fan of parades but this one was pretty fun.
