Got off the bus on the way home from church this morning and heard the most unearthly drumming and tootling. There, just ahead of me, was a parade of gentlemen dressed in what I assume are Ottoman uniforms. The ones in front were marching with swords, swinging from side to side and looking fierce. Behind them were some equally fierce bell-janglers, then some trumpet and horn players, then some drummers, and finally a guy in the back of a pickup whacking a couple of bass drums. The truck had the web address of our local lokmaci - maker of donuts in syrup given out free in front of homes or businisses in memory of a departed loved one I caught them on video - you can watch a couple of the little segments here.
Now we really must leave to go on our solar eclipse tour.
