Gerald Ford grew up within a few blocks of where we live and was married in the church that is just around the corner from us. His funeral was held there so our little neighborhood was full of people and camera crews and big black suburbans with government plates. Surreal!
I grew up watching Channel 8 news out of Indianapolis so I had to get a picture of their satellite truck on our block!

Another view of the casket being brought in. Right around where that green post is was where President Carter and Rumsfeld and Cheney were standing!
