JFK Assassination 50th Anniversary

Frame 367 from the Zapruder film

Between the fact that I had just been to Dallas this past spring and that my life was conceived somewhere around the date of Kennedy leaving this mortal coil, I have been following all the hoopla leading up to this auspicious anniversary with more interest than your average Anglo-Canadian.  Below are three photos I took when I went down to Dealey Plaza early on a misty April Sunday morning.   Even at that hour, there were tour buses arriving one after the other - it took some time before I could get pictures without any people in them.  It was a remarkable experience to be there and to talk to all the characters that populate the area.
