Pandemic birthday party

Today we participated in a birthday parade for the 90th birthday of Don Hazleton, a long-time Dummerston resident. Don and his family were our next-door neighbors back in the 1950s when I lived in the Dummerston parsonage. He still lives in the same house. A couple of fire engines, several trucks, and scores of cars participated in the parade. Ours was decorated with a big sign and balloons, as were many others. Don and members of his family were all sitting outside the house beside the road, so I guess somebody had tipped them off that this was going to happen. We all drove by the house honking and yelling our congratulations, went up a ways to turn  around and came back and did it all again. Lots of people were wearing their masks, including Don himself. At the age of 90, you can’t be too careful.
