Small Town Parade

We watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade and Rose Bowl Parades each year and ooooh and ahhhh at the giant balloons and magnificent floats.  We have our own version of these fabulous affairs- the local Christmas Parade.  Churches, civic clubs, school groups, businesses and local politicians enter decorated floats and automobiles.  Every fire truck in the county is displayed and sounds every bell and whistle.  Children dart into the streets to fetch candy, beads and a few toys thrown by the folks on the floats, cars or marching groups.  Vendors sell carnival toys and local groups sell fried fish plates.  Even the local truck driving schools bring the big truck to town to show it off.

My daughter's dance studio walked in the parade- she loves her BLING!
