People waiting for hours to get into the Kennedy museum was only part of the story. When the funeral procession left Boston, traveled up Rt 93 North, to Rt 95 (128) to Lexington-the airport at Hanscom Field, cars pulled over to the side of the road, people got out of their cars, and stood and cried. These are among the busiest highways around Boston, and easily a 25 mile drive. If you think that DC was special, you should have been in Boston.

It is a touching window into the psyche of Kennedy's supporters and the photographs you took, especially the one of the man crying, speak volumes about not only Kennedy's legacy as a statesman but also the effects he had upon the citizens he so fervently served.
