Happy 4th of July

We've done all kinds of things on the 4th of July holiday, but we've never both had to work before! So here's another new experience for us, we just make the most of it.

I had to work at the Fallon Theatre in Columbia, not realizing that the parade was going to start right outside my door!

Everyone was gathering waiting for the start of the parade, some of them in period costumes.

Here's parade entry number 18 intent on getting a last little bit of practice in so that every note could be heard!

Mom and Dad sounded pretty good together, as soon as number 18 finds those last notes hiding in his fiddle he can join in.
There was a lot of red white and blue everywhere, including the lady with the washboard and the one with the penny whistle.
This lady's outfit was pretty spectacular, she'd of received my vote as the best entry.
On the other hand, this guy looks real good, maybe I'll vote for him instead.
I didn't matter who won, the important thing was that everyone had a good time.

Happy Independence Day everyone!
