I forgot all about the parade this year... I missed it! My bad... but I did have the pictures from last year's parade...and hadn't learned how to enlarge pictures back then and hardly anyone visited the article anyway.....so I decided to repost.
We're a small town - so nothing big & flashy to be found here. We make up for it in enthusiasm.
Legion members started the parade off.
They were followed by a marching band.
And then we had a lot of groups in red t-shirts - most of them have Support Our Troops on the front of them
It's a Chrysler - just like my family had when I was about 14.
All of the advertising for the parade told everyone with a lawn tractor to come on out and Support Our Troops.
bottom guy there must not have had time for breakfast - he brought it along.
There were plenty of fire trucks, complete with sirens.
Back at the Legion, the ending point for the parade.
The Legion was cooking hot dogs and hamburgers for all.
This little girl had the best decorated bike, I thought... I don't know if they were giving prizes, but she would definitely be my pick!
The lemonade stand; all proceeds were going to the OSPCA, according to the flyers.
Bringing up the rear!

Canada Day is actually today, Sue ... but the parade was Saturday - and I think the fireworks were going to be then too but they got rained out. I don't know if they will have them tonight ...doubt it as most will be headed back home long before dark.
