A moment in 2014 caught in time…

I spotted this in my camera roll. Evidently, I took the photo and immediately forgot about it.
Seeing it now brings it all back. I was hired to MC “Outdoor Bingo in the park” in NYC’s Bryant Park.
When I took the stage- I saw this dragonfly sitting on the microphone. I didn’t want to disturb it, so I stood by the microphone for a while, looking at it. I must’ve pulled out my phone and taken this picture- (that’s the part I don’t remember)
Now, usually when I take the stage to begin a show, I walk straight to the microphone and start in confidently-But because of the dragonfly, I stood there for a while, and people wondered, Why the awkward pause what was going on?
For the people in the front, I got their attention and pointed out the dragonfly. A few people were able to see it, but most weren’t.
From what I remember, I picked up the microphone stand and gave it a little shake-The dragonfly released and flew away, and a few people in the front applauded.
I introduced myself in the microphone and began the event.

The interesting part to me is not this little story itself, but this memory. It’s been stored away in a little place in my brain, and jogged loose because of this photograph.
Kind of interesting!
I never would’ve remembered this at all. I think, even if you had said to me, “do you remember when there was a dragonfly on your microphone?”
I would have said no- Looking at this photograph, it all came back to me.
Just think of all the memories we have stored away, that, barring a photo, or some other thing like a song or a smell, will never be shaken loose.

“The Boys of Bedford VA”

Bedford VIrginia, the county seat of Bedford County VA is a town of approximately 3200 people.

It is the home of the National D-Day memorial.
Why did they select this small southern in the Shenandoah Valley town to be the location?

On June 6, 1944, the lone Western Union man was busy.
19 of the boys of Bedford were killed on June 6, 4 more died before the invasion was complete.
Bedfords loss was the highest loss proportional to population of any location in the US.

The 29th ID,’Follow Me!’, the ‘Blue and Gray’ division was and is comprised of VA and MD National Guard Units.
