The Stagecoach is
coming!
 |
Our friends Alex and Jeannette tell us
that we see things around town that they never see. We don't go
looking for stuff - really! But sometimes when you're headed for the
hardware store early on a Saturday morning, you have to stop and watch what
is going on. This Saturday is the
Mother Lode Roundup and you can't have a roundup without a parade! |
 |
Wells Fargo Bank has a local branch and they brought
their stagecoach out to participate in the parade.
They parked the truck in the bank's parking lot and
started putting the stagecoach together. |
 |
The horses are pretty patient while the
wranglers are hooking them to the coach.
They've been through this before and
know that soon they'll be part of the show! |
 |
After a few minutes, everything is ready and the driver
has all the reins in his hands... |
 |
The local bank's head honcho climbs on board and gets
to ride "shotgun" for the parade. |
 |
His family gets to ride inside so that
they can wave at the audience! |
 |
They're on their way into town for the parade, I'm on
my way to the hardware store on just another Saturday morning in Sonora. |
